Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This textbook has been written to care for the grade 1 Computer Education syllabus. It is a new textbook and the first of its kind to be written by the author. The syllabus is the framework for the teacher to follow while this textbook is a resource for the student. The textbook is a perfect match for the upper class for a review. This book will minimize the amount of time for teachers in lesson preparation and more time will be devoted to actual classroom teaching and learning. Text and assignment practices were included including computer lab practical which gives the time and opportunity to become familiar with the basics before pursuing further into the field of study in greater detail at the upper class.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Computer studies book 3 is a continuation and development series from book 2. This book begins with the meaning, quality, and origin of computers studies in both traditional and contemporary concepts. Realizing that practicing computer requires some specific materials and tools, the author provides suggested compilation of such items with some improvised types, care, and usage. It is important to the users of this book would discover the appropriate blend in the teaching and demonstration of computers in a traditional and contemporary method.These days good and research textbooks are scarce especially those that are relevant to computer studies at the basic level education, this book will serve as being very timely, particularly to the target users I recommend it to all basic and elementary schools.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Computer Studies book two, its highly illustrated course book covers both the theoretical and practical aspects of the syllabus. It includes self-test questions and tasks to reinforce learning. It offers clear learning objectives, chapter summaries and examination. The book includes both the print version and eBook version.Computer Studies books is a three-book series (1-3) developed to build on the knowledge students already acquired from book one through to book 3. The three books are written following International Educational Research and Development (IER&D) and took is background from British standard Curriculum for the year three elementary School Education Programme. The language of the textbook is contemporary, paying attention to new trends in computer studies, programming, computer application and the use and development of Information and Communication Technology (ICT). The objective is to stimulate further interest in computer studies and computer related studies and career towards higher levels, thus addressing the challenges of the digital divide.The contents are treated in themes and chapters. Each chapter is broken down into units, which have been carefully sequenced and arranged to aid easy comprehension. The addition of activities and questions at the end of each chapter would help teachers easily evaluate students' performance to realize the objectives of each chapter.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Teaching primary computing without computers? The Computing curriculum is a challenge for primary school teachers. The realities of primary school resources mean limited access to computer hardware. But computing is about more than computers. Important aspects of the fundamental principles and concepts of computer science can be taught without any hardware. Children can learn to analyse problems and computational terms and apply computational thinking to solve problems without turning on a computer.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A guide to computational thinking education, with a focus on artificial intelligence literacy and the integration of computing and physical objects. Computing has become an essential part of today’s primary and secondary school curricula. In recent years, K–12 computer education has shifted from computer science itself to the broader perspective of computational thinking (CT), which is less about technology than a way of thinking and solving problems—“a fundamental skill for everyone, not just computer scientists,” in the words of Jeanette Wing, author of a foundational article on CT. This volume introduces a variety of approaches to CT in K–12 education, offering a wide range of international perspectives that focus on artificial intelligence (AI) literacy and the integration of computing and physical objects. The book first offers an overview of CT and its importance in K–12 education, covering such topics as the rationale for teaching CT; programming as a general problem-solving skill; and the “phenomenon-based learning” approach. It then addresses the educational implications of the explosion in AI research, discussing, among other things, the importance of teaching children to be conscientious designers and consumers of AI. Finally, the book examines the increasing influence of physical devices in CT education, considering the learning opportunities offered by robotics.

Book excerpt: Computing in some form touches nearly every aspect of day to day life and is reflected in the ubiquitous use of cell phones, the expansion of automation into many industries, and the vast amounts of data that are routinely gathered about people's health, education, and buying habits. Computing is now a part of nearly every occupation, not only those in the technology industry. Given the ubiquity of computing in both personal and professional life, there are increasing calls for all learners to participate in learning experiences related to computing including more formal experiences offered in schools, opportunities in youth development programs and after-school clubs, or self-initiated hands-on experiences at home. At the same time, the lack of diversity in the computing workforce and in programs that engage learners in computing is well-documented. It is important to consider how to increase access and design experiences for a wide range of learners. Authentic experiences in STEM - that is, experiences that reflect professional practice and also connect learners to real-world problems that they care about - are one possible approach for reaching a broader range of learners. These experiences can be designed for learners of all ages and implemented in a wide range of settings. However, the role they play in developing youths' interests, capacities, and productive learning identities for computing is unclear. There is a need to better understand the role of authentic STEM experiences in supporting the development of interests, competencies, and skills related to computing. Cultivating Interest and Competencies in Computing examines the evidence on learning and teaching using authentic, open-ended pedagogical approaches and learning experiences for children and youth in grades K-12 in both formal and informal settings. This report gives particular attention to approaches and experiences that promote the success of children and youth from groups that are typically underrepresented in computing fields. Cultivating Interest and Competencies in Computing provides guidance for educators and facilitators, program designers, and other key stakeholders on how to support learners as they engage in authentic learning experiences.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This This book is open access under a CC BY 4.0 license.This book offers a comprehensive guide, covering every important aspect of computational thinking education. It provides an in-depth discussion of computational thinking, including the notion of perceiving computational thinking practices as ways of mapping models from the abstraction of data and process structures to natural phenomena. Further, it explores how computational thinking education is implemented in different regions, and how computational thinking is being integrated into subject learning in K-12 education. In closing, it discusses computational thinking from the perspective of STEM education, the use of video games to teach computational thinking, and how computational thinking is helping to transform the quality of the workforce in the textile and apparel industry.
