Last spring my freshmen class enjoyed TED-Ed’s Think Like a Coder series of videos. The final episode of the series was released a few days ago. The last installment is called The World Machine.
As I wrote last spring, my freshmen in Intro to Computer Science class loved these videos. I didn’t think that they would so I didn’t plan to show them. Then we had a day that wrapped up a little early so I put one on just to see how they’d react, they really liked them and ended up calling out how they would have solved the problems in the episodes. I plan to use these videos again a little later this year with my new group of freshmen.
