Teaching primary computing without computers? The Computing
curriculum is a challenge for primary school teachers. The
realities of primary school resources mean limited access to
computer hardware. But computing is about more than computers.
Important aspects of the fundamental principles and concepts of
computer science can be taught without any hardware. Children can
learn to analyse problems and computational terms and apply
computational thinking to solve problems without turning on a
computer. This book shows you how you can teach computing through
'unplugged' activities. It provides lesson examples and everyday
activities to help teachers and pupils explore computing concepts
in a concrete way, accelerating their understanding and grasp of
key ideas such as abstraction, logic, algorithms and data
representation. The unplugged approach is physical and
collaborative, using kinaesthetic learning to help make computing
concepts more meaningful and memorable. This book will help you to
elevate your teaching, and your children's learning of computing
beyond the available hardware. It focuses on the building blocks of
understanding required for computation thinking.
