Questions for our Subject Matter Expert Interview
Posted On Monday, October 12, 2009 at at 10/12/2009 06:10:00 AM by Phil TierneyIn Friday's meeting, Bernard asked me to pose this question to the team. You will recall that the steering committee is planning on identifying and interviewing subject matter expert(s) on computational thinking, the concept. So here's my question:
- CT clearly requires an interdisciplinary approach to reshaping educational programs to establish and reinforce CT foundational knowledge and skills. Can you imagine ways in which this would be done in a non-computer science domain without directly introducing the vocabulary of computer science or CT? That is, would you consider fifth graders' (or college business students' for that matter) demonstration of the ability to deconstruct a problem or to design a parallel problem solution strategy sufficient evidence of direct impact on educational results?

In posting this, I am creating a new label (or tag or keyword...consider it a reserved word to be used in moderation) that will help you always find the posts here that require your action, input, comments, etc. General discussion postings are tagged at the discretion of the poster, but these special menu items under construction, begging for your secret sauce will henceforth be labeled "Team To-do". And you will always be able to find them by clicking the Team To-do tag link in the Labels section of the right-hand column. You could even bookmark the link for a regular check, but it would be even better if you subscribed to the blog posts or to just the comments with an rss reader or rss container in your favorite news page.
