Computational Thinking Game by Codio

By Amy Box
Head of Schools Liaison

We have been working hard to extend our course offering so that you can use our engaging content for teaching and learning at KS3(UK)/grades 6-8(US).

Presenting: Computational Thinking - Create a maze game

We are particularly excited about this new course which delivers the concepts of Computational Thinking in parallel with coding skills. You can choose to complete the project with your students using either JavaScript or Python, it’s up to you!

The course covers:

Designing algorithms (using Codio’s Flode tools)

Flode

Designing algorithms (using Codio’s Flode tools)

Thinking logically (using blockly to build your maze)

Thinking logically (using blockly to build your maze)

Decomposing the problem into it’s component parts

Decomposing the problem into it’s component parts Abstracting detail through the use of objects and functions

You can read more about computational thinking here. We think you and your students will love working through this project. As always - please let us know your thoughts and feedback.
Enjoy :)
