Join REL Midwest for a webinar on how educators can integrate computational thinking into middle school math instruction to strengthen students’ math reasoning and problem-solving skills.
During the webinar, participants will learn about five computational thinking strategies—pattern recognition, abstraction, decomposition, debugging, and algorithms—and consider how these strategies can help students make sense of complex math problems. Presenters will also guide participants through an activity and share free resources developed by REL Midwest to support the implementation of computational thinking strategies in middle school math instruction.
This webinar is designed for middle school math educators, instructional coaches, district math leaders, and professional learning staff interested in integrating computational thinking into math instruction.
By the end of the session, participants will:
- Understand what computational thinking is and why it matters for math instruction;
- Explore practical strategies to help students apply computational thinking in math classrooms;
- Learn about resources that can support coaching, professional learning, and classroom implementation; and
- Consider ways to use these resources in their own school or district context.
