Think Like a Programmer: Algorithms & Problem Solving

A four-week beginner course that develops computational thinking through robot missions, puzzles, and algorithm challenges. Each session includes a short mini-lesson with visual slides, discussion, and interactive challenges using paper-and-pencil or guided class activities. Emphasis is on sequencing, debugging, loops, patterns, and conditional logic, with opportunities for students to plan and test solutions. A free Scratch account is recommended for the final project.
