Computational thinking is the use of computers to simulate and study complex systems. This video highlights STEMteachersNYC program to help teachers use simulations with modifiable code to allow students to visually and graphically represent physical phenomena and solve physics problems that they wouldn’t otherwise be able to do with a calculator, or paper and pencil. Incorporating coding in physics education gives classical physics a modern update.

Join us this summer for an indepth 2week training! Learn how to use computational thinking in your classroom and get an introduction to the powerful, new Pyret language, a browserbased, stateoftheart teaching vehicle. To register and learn more visit: https://stemteachersnyc.org/computati...
