Cambridge University Press is a part of the University of Cambridge, one of the world’s leading universities trusted for excellence in education.
Brighter thinking drives our approach. Every day we talk to teachers & leading educational thinkers in Cambridge & around the world about how to make teaching & learning better. This insight and our common goals guide the development of every new resource that we publish.
ACM India & Cambridge, together, empower teachers to inculcate computational thinking & problem solving in their classrooms through Cambridge ‘Coding Sandpit’. Authored by ACM India, this dynamic eight-level series with engaging activities was developed keeping in mind the wide scope, application of computational thinking, problem solving and critical reasoning skills in our lives in the digital era.

Bringing Computational Thinking in the Classrooms - https://youtu.be/JNxktadtJNo
The Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) India has started an education initiative, CSpathshala, to develop a modern computing curriculum and teaching material for K-12.
The primary goal of teaching Computational Thinking is to develop ability to solve problems and express the solution in the form of an algorithm that is precise and can be understood by a human or a machine. Experts feel that this does not require the use of computers and can be taught as a series of interesting, engaging and fun activities. This also overcomes the hurdle of having to learn programming before being able to explore ideas and articulating solutions as algorithms. We want students to realize that they are capable of finding solutions to problems on their own, rather than being given a solution to apply to the problem.
More than 65% of students will work in jobs that don’t even exist today. We want to help prepare them for that future by getting them excited about where computer science (CS) can take them. So we’re building programs and supporting partners that reach millions of students every year, with a focus on girls and others who are underrepresented in the field today.
