INTEGRATING CODING
CHALLENGES TO
DEVELOP
COMPUTATIONAL
THINKING
Computational thinking is a problem-solving
approach that helps students break big problems
into smaller steps. It’s a key skill for coding and
for many careers beyond computer science.
• Essential for problem-solving
• Builds logical thinking skills
INTRODUCTION
Coding challenges encourage students to
think creatively and logically. They
provide practical experience in designing
solutions, testing ideas, and fixing errors
— all vital parts of computational
thinking.
HOW CODING CHALLENGES
HELP
• Improves problem-solving
skills
• Builds resilience and
persistence
• Encourages collaboration
• Makes learning fun and
engaging
BENEFITS
EXAMPLES
• Hour of Code activities
• Code.org challenges
• Robotics competitions
• Create-your-own coding projects
Integrating coding challenges into
lessons is a powerful way to build
computational thinking skills. By
making coding fun and interactive,
teachers help students become
innovative thinkers ready for
tomorrow’s world.
CONCLUSION
THANK
