The Thinker’s Toolkit: Computational Thinking & CS for Every Classroom

Wed. October 15, 2025 | 3:30 pm - 4:30 pm CDT

“Why don’t they just… think?”

If you’ve ever caught yourself asking this in the middle of class, you’re not alone—and you’re not out of options.

During this webinar, we’ll unpack the concept of Computational Thinking (CT), including what it means and why it matters for every subject area (not just computer science).

Join the LTC’s CS & STEM team for a practical, down-to-earth look at how CT can help students break down problems, spot patterns, and think more clearly. You’ll walk away with ready-to-use strategies, classroom activities, and a better understanding of how CT builds across disciplines.

Plus, we’ll introduce you to Computational Agency, a mindset that empowers both you and your students to approach challenges with confidence and clarity.

Illinois educators who register here and attend live through Streamyard can earn 1.0 PD credit.
