Problem-Solvers Wanted

In classrooms across Michigan, New York City, and Pennsylvania, something's changing. Students are sticking with hard problems longer. They're asking better questions, testing new ideas, and communicating their thinking. They're invested in learning, not just chasing points or checking boxes. The shift? Teachers are using the language of computational thinking to make problem-solving visible, tangible, and doable for every student. It's building teacher confidence and sparking innovation, leading to more student-driven learning. It's bringing joy and agency back into the classroom.
