Disruptive innovation is an integral part to making this transition possible. Computational thinking must be a part of the core curriculum. Computational Thinking is about strategic problem solving. This type of work creates better students and allows all students to show their true potential. Building off of Papert again, “It is 100 years since John Dewey began arguing for the kind of change that would move schools away from authoritarian classrooms with abstract notions to environments in which learning is achieved through experimentation, practice and exposure to the real world. I, for one, believe the computer makes Dewey’s vision far more accessible epistemologically. It also makes it politically more likely to happen, for where Dewey had nothing but philosophical arguments, the present day movement for change has an army of agents. The ultimate pressure for the change will be child power.” (Good Reads, 2018). These quotes resonate with me because they capture environment we live in today and show the direction I am working to help teachers go in.
