CS Unplugged
This book can be effectively used in enrichment and extension programmes, or even in the regular classroom. You don't have to be a computer expert to enjoy learning these principles with your students. The book contains a range of activities, with background information explained simply. Answers to all problems are provided, and each activity ends with a 'what's it all about?' section that explains the relevance of the activities.
Many of the activities are mathematically based, e.g. exploring binary numbers, mapping and graphs, patterns and sorting problems, and cryptography. Others link in well with the technology curriculum, and the knowledge and understanding of how computers work. The studentren are actively involved in communication, problem solving, creativity, and thinking skills in a meaningful context. The activities also provide a very engaging way to explore "computational thinking", which is gaining traction in school curricula.
