2. Preamble:
2.1 Computational thinking (CT) is
recognized as one of the key 21st century
skills that involves understanding a
problem, designing a solution and
expressing it in a form that a human or a
machine can execute. The recently
unveiled National Education Policy, 2020
by the Ministry of Education, GoI;
recommends that mathematical and
computational thinking will be given
increased emphasis through a variety of
innovative methods, including the regular
use of puzzles and games that make
mathematical thinking more enjoyable and
engaging. It thus becomes paramount that
the students of State of Goa are trained in
these essential skills to mitigate the
demands of the digital age.
2.2 A principal goal of school education
is to prepare the child for participation in
the world outside, interrogate it, and
contribute to changing and shaping the
world. Language, Mathematics, Science
and Social studies form the core of school
curricula world over, as they provide the
basic means for studying the world, and in
changing it.
2.3 COMPUTING is ubiquitous and
people from every walk of life will need to
be familiar with computing in some form
or the other. This will give rise to a huge
demand for computing skills leading to a
talent shortage unless computational
thinking
is
introduced
in
schools
immediately.
2.4 Children need to be taught not only
to be socially responsible citizens but also
train them to be creators, inventors and
adopters of technology. It is therefore
imperative to teach computing, which
promotes problem solving, computational
thinking and critical reasoning skills, at par
with Mathematics and Sciences.
2.5 In the State of Goa, many schools
teach students use of word processors and
presentation applications as well as some
programming languages such as Lego,
Scratch, C++ or Java. Computational
thinking is wider in scope and involves
understanding a problem, designing a
solution and expressing it in a form that a
human or a machine can execute.
Computational Thinking involves problem
decomposition, finding pattern in the
problem and creating a systematic and
sequential logical step to solve the problem
using computers. Many countries such as
the USA, UK, Singapore have adopted a
national computing curriculum. Our state
should not lag behind, and should take all
the steps to implement Computational/
Design Thinking in its school education
system.
