In this broadcast students work on two unplugged activities aimed at developing their numeracy and computational thinking skills. In the first activity, students are required to use their algorithmic thinking, decomposition and logic skills to create an algorithm for a variety of cup-stacking cha...

In this broadcast students work on an unplugged activity aimed at developing their numeracy and computational thinking skills. Students use algorithmic thinking, decomposition and abstraction skills to create programs (given specific commands) that allow them to navigate through a variety of grid...

Advocates say the deal can give closure to the affected families, but critics say the amounts for survivors are too small, there were no national hearings, and the deal should have included Métis survivors, not just First Nations.

Participants will learn how skills related to decomposition, abstraction, pattern recognition and algorithmic reasoning skills for children lead to the development of computational thinking. In the first activity, students learn about binary coding by collaboratively building a paper chain garlan...
