Who else would be more passionate about spreading our mission than the Tiny Thinkers team? Get to know us better and read more about what we have done during the second run of Tiny Thinkers!
In today's episode, hear more about how we worked to spread the word about the importance of Computational Thinking, and how age and tools present no barriers to learning! We are grateful to be invited down to the Early Childhood Conference (ECC) 2019 and get the opportunity to highlight how Computational Thinking can be taught through simple everyday activities.
On this special edition, expect to hear valuable advice from the mama that does it all- Candice, and her adorable 6-year old daughter! As the co-founder of Coding Lab, Candice juggles between her passion for Computational Thinking and her two lovely children, Audrey and Mitchell. Instead of struggling to find a balance between work and home, she has successfully integrated Computational Thinking into her children’s everyday lives. What better way to learn about this subject than hearing it from this power mother-daughter duo themselves?
Although all four of her children were officially diagnosed with ASD, Michelle was intent on leveraging on the benefits of technology for her children. Christian, the eldest of her kids, found his passion for programming through this avenue. In this unique feature, we ask him about his journey and some of the difficulties he faced.
In the present age, children are born into a wealth of information, and have access to technologies that were thought impossible just a decade ago. Simply being literate is no longer enough. These days, it’s all about being digitally literate — learning how to create solutions that are appropriate for the digital age.
