Informal Learning Environments as Spaces for Building Mathematical and Computational Thinking Skills

Fri, April 10, 9:45 to 11:15am PDT (9:45 to 11:15am PDT), JW Marriott Los Angeles L.A. LIVE, Floor: Ground Floor, Gold 4

Session Type: Roundtable Session

Abstract

This collection of studies investigates how young learners engage with mathematics and computational thinking across home, school, and informal environments. Together, these studies illuminate the diverse ways children develop problem-solving and computational literacies through family interactions, play, and place-based experiences, highlighting informal contexts as powerful spaces for fostering curiosity, creativity, and confidence in STEM learning.
