Practice Design & Computational Thinking With Your Students
Use this free workbook to introduce and practice Design and Computational Thinking with your students. Your students will learn fundamental concepts for solving problems with a human-centric and creative approach – future-ready skills for school, life, and career.
What Is DeCoDe?
In this workbook, BSD introduces DeCoDe: a powerful framework that combines Design (DT) and Computational Thinking (CT) to solve complex problems:
- Step 1 – Start with DT’s first three phases.
- Step 2 – Switch to the CT process.
- Step 3 – Complete the CT process to solve the problem.
- Step 4 – Pick up the DT process where your algorithm becomes your testable prototype.
We call this process DeCoDe because we insert Computational Thinking between Design Thinking. This method is a way of decoding a problem, to break it down, decipher it, and find a useful solution.
What's Included In The Workbook?
- Explanations of Design and Computational Thinking with break downs of their specific steps.
- How to combine Design and Computational Thinking into the DeCoDe method for creative problem solving.
- DeCoDe worksheets with examples, practice, and a template students can use for their own projects.
