Event: Sequences & Stories, Part 2
Time/Date: 1:00 - 4:00 pm, Monday, September 23, 2019
Presenters: Tessa Michaelson Schmidt, WI DPI; Caitlin Schaffer, Oconomowoc Public Library; Angela Meyers and Laurie Freund, Bridges Library System
Location: Franklin Public Library. 9151 W. Loomis Road, Franklin, WI 53132

This workshop will introduce participants to Computational Thinking (CT), which is a set of problem-solving methods that involve expressing problems and their solutions in ways that a computer can execute. CT is also referred to as "coding." Don't feel intimidated--the session will be relaxed with no PYTHON, HTML, or binary code spoken or used!
​Participants will get hands-on experience and a chance to discuss what computational thinking really is (and how you are already doing it). This workshop will help you integrate CT into your library's activities for ages 0-18 years, with and without tech.
​
Learning Outcomes: Participants will...
  • Articulate core concepts of computational thinking
  • Begin designing activities for and with children and teens that connect to CT
  • Understand the value of integrating CT into activities for and with teens and younger kids
  • Connect CT to pre-existing library activities and services
