Book Description
This six-page laminated reference guide shares practical strategies, tools and lesson ideas for incorporating robotics and computational thinking into your teaching. Robotics is an excellent tool for teaching vital computational thinking (CT) and programming skills by allowing students to see and interpret results in real time. Not only are robots highly motivating for students, they can be easily incorporated into the subjects you teach or as part of an after-school club. Based on the book Rev Up Robotics: Real-World Computational Thinking in the K-8 Classroom by Jorge Valenzuela, this guide will quickly get you up to speed on how to introduce CT and robotics in elementary and middle school classes. The guide features: An overview of computational thinking and resources for teaching CT concepts. Ideas for weaving robotics into math, science, social studies and English language arts. Advice for creating an after-school robotics club or getting started with competitive robotics. (ISTE Jump Start Guide, 8.5" x 11", three laminated panels, six pages)

Book Description
Author Jorge Valenzuela lays out the foundational skills of computational thinking required for programming with robotics. Unlike other robotics books and curriculum, Rev Up Robotics takes a cross-curricular approach, showing educators how to begin incorporating robotics into their content area lessons and in conjunction with other subjects. You’ll get an overview of standards-based skills that can be covered in English language arts, math, science, social studies and robotics electives. Teachers also get tips for selecting the robot that works for them and for students, and details on the functions of gears, motors and sensors. Also included is a deep dive into more advanced topics like the intersections of computer science, mechanical engineering and electrical engineering with robotics. Finally, you’ll find advice for getting students involved with competitive robotics, and case studies that offer empirical evidence for using robotics successfully in instruction. The book: • Shows how to help students recognize and apply the four elements of computational thinking to familiar situations. • Provides a pathway from working with visual blocks to programming in C++. • Discusses building and programming robots, with tips for adding your own code and troubleshooting. • Demonstrates how to manipulate basic movement to better understand the functions of gears, motors and sensors. With activities and examples for grade levels K-8, teachers come away with easy-to-implement cross-curricular ideas to engage students in computer science and engineering activities.

Book Description
The education system is constantly growing and developing as more ways to teach and learn are implemented into the classroom. Recently, there has been a growing interest in teaching computational thinking with schools all over the world introducing it to the curriculum due to its ability to allow students to become proficient at problem solving using logic, an essential life skill. In order to provide the best education possible, it is imperative that computational thinking strategies, along with programming skills and the use of robotics in the classroom, be implemented in order for students to achieve maximum thought processing skills and computer competencies. The Research Anthology on Computational Thinking, Programming, and Robotics in the Classroom is an all-encompassing reference book that discusses how computational thinking, programming, and robotics can be used in education as well as the benefits and difficulties of implementing these elements into the classroom. The book includes strategies for preparing educators to teach computational thinking in the classroom as well as design techniques for incorporating these practices into various levels of school curriculum and within a variety of subjects. Covering topics ranging from decomposition to robot learning, this book is ideal for educators, computer scientists, administrators, academicians, students, and anyone interested in learning more about how computational thinking, programming, and robotics can change the current education system.

Book Description
This new edition of the popular book No Fear Coding offers current research, updated tools and more cross-curricular connections for K-5 teachers to integrate into their classes. Coding has become an essential skill for finding solutions to everyday problems, while computational thinking (CT) teaches reasoning and creativity, and offers an innovative approach to demonstrating content knowledge and seeing mathematical processes in action. No Fear Coding introduced many K-5 educators to ways to bring coding into their curriculum by embedding computational thinking skills into activities for different content areas. This second edition features updated tools—including programmable robots and other physical computing devices—as well as new activities aligned to the ISTE Standards for Students and Computational Thinking Competencies. Also new in this edition: • New tools for teaching coding—including physical computing devices, block-based programming and AR/VR— along with methods for introducing, tutorials and lesson plans. • Teachable examples and activities that illustrate CT concepts—decomposition, pattern recognition, abstraction and algorithmic thinking. • Resources for deeper understanding and discussion questions for professional development and reflection on the practice of teaching coding and CT. • Tips on demystifying basic coding concepts so that teachers are comfortable teaching these concepts to their students. No Fear Coding, Second Edition will help build students’ coding and CT knowledge to prepare them for the middle grades and beyond.

Book Description
Computational thinking is a lifelong skill important for succeeding in careers and life. Students especially need to acquire this skill while in school as it can assist with solving a number of complex problems that arise later in life. Therefore, the importance of teaching computational thinking and coding in early education is paramount for fostering problem-solving and creativity. Teaching Computational Thinking and Coding to Young Children discusses the importance of teaching computational thinking and coding in early education. The book focuses on interdisciplinary connections between computational thinking and other areas of study, assessment methods for computational thinking, and different contexts in which computational thinking plays out. Covering topics such as programming, computational thinking assessment, computational expression, and coding, this book is essential for elementary and middle school teachers, early childhood educators, administrators, instructional designers, curricula developers, educational software developers, researchers, educators, academicians, and students in computer science, education, computational thinking, and early childhood education.
