COMPUTATIONAL THINKING Can she move? How many paces? Do we have to move? How many paces or places? A day of thinking aloud (allowed) and using the combined power (not internet) to come up with solutions and ways to work through a problem, which was empowering. OMG tech whizz Viv, came and unpacked her bag of tricks and took us through a veritable maze of understandings, links to sites, discussions, provocations and challenges that we will face in the unknown of the future.
