There are over ten different points of view in the video. Students to entrepreneurs describe how they took their first steps into the logic of coding and how this changed their outlook and mental framework. One professor, Caterina Colucci, describes the contribution of the CS First Platform for learning how to learn, having fun, for life.
“The CS First Platform has completely changed how activities are conducted in class. Students participate and collaborate; inclusion is at 360 degrees. This means growing together and enriching their skills through exchange and sharing. Computational thinking allows us to become more aware of our potential.”
Even for the fourth edition of Project Computer Science First, the Fondazione Mondo Digitale is collaborating with Google to promote the use in Italian schools of the CS First Platform, which promotes the development of computational thinking and soft skills in a fun and exciting manner. CS First is a free platform that allow core curriculum subjects to be integrated with more efficient methodologies for teaching and learning new languages, not just coding.
