计算思维教育公平何以可能?——《面向包容性世界的计算思维:教育工作者学习和行动的指南》的解读与启示

Can Computational Thinking Enhance Educational Equity?——Interpretation and Enlightenment of Computational Thinking for an Inclusive World:A Resource for Educators to Learn and Lead

计算思维教育及相关举措在技术的支持下获得了快速发展,但教育系统的内部差异正在扩大接受计算思维教育机会的不公平。2021年12月,美国“数字承诺”教育技术国家中心发布的计算思维教育前沿报告《面向包容性世界的计算思维:教育工作者学习和行动的指南》,对计算思维的内涵及其变迁作了系统分析,提出了计算思维的整合性框架和面向包容性世界的计算思维培养策略。我国教育管理部门有必要系统审视计算思维教育的最新变化,鼓励教师将计算思维融入课程教学,营造包容性的计算思维课堂,为教师提供计算思维培训机会。

With the support of continuously updated technical resources,the differences within the education system are inevitably expanding the unfairness of receiving computational thinking education opportunities.In December 2021,the National Center for Digital Commitment Education Technology of the United States released the cutting-edge report on computational thinking education,Computational Thinking for an Inclusive World:A Resource for Educators to Learn and Lead.The report first made a systematic analysis of the connotation and changes of computational thinking,then proposed an integrated framework for computational thinking,and finally proposed a training strategy for an inclusive world.In response to the current practice of computational thinking education in China,education management departments should systematically review the cutting-edge changes in computational thinking education,encourage teachers to integrate computational thinking into the teaching of various courses,strive to create an inclusive computational thinking classroom,and provide teachers with training opportunities for computational thinking courses.
