computational thinking wolfram

  • Wolfram defined computational thinking as “the activity for a human of taking something that they want to know about or that they want to have happen in the world, and formulating it in such a way that a sufficiently smart computer can then know what to do.”
  • “Computational thinking is a bigger, more significant thing that I think will be remembered as probably the most important intellectual achievement of the 21st century,”
  • Coding, Wolfram argued, is “the enemy” of computational thinking. “I think with the low-level coding, it is as mechanical as a lot of the kind of math that kids find boring,”

shared by Phil Taylor on 22 Oct 17 - No Cached
  • The students have already changed. The learning trends of 2012 have changed, too. They’re now approaching the trends of 2020, and here we are today curious about what engages students and what their interests are and how they tend to use the tools they love. That’s reactive design
  • While education struggles to agree on what needs changing and how to make it happen—and why, it should be asked, should we have to agree?—things around us have all exploded, detonated by technology.

  • The internet is still young, and it is still learning to organize itself. But until it does, the most important skill in the 21st century will be the ability to rationally refine the sense-making apparatus of our mind.
  • The first is to do the work to figure out which information should be consumed and which should be discarded — consciously, beyond our personal biases, and ideally, from as many diverse perspectives as possible; the second is to just step away from it all to simply think about what is consumed and how it all connects.
  • If we don’t effectively use our tools, our tools end up using us. In the 21st century, the difference will be determined by how we manage information.

    "f you're an entrepreneur and have young children, it's very easy to feel as if you're involved in a constant war between giving enough time and energy to your business and spending sufficient time with your family. There doesn't have to be so much friction between work and personal life, though. In fact, your children can benefit tremendously if you get them involved in your business pursuits."
