FUNdamentals of CS: designing and evaluating computer science activities for kids

Computer Science is not included in high school or middle school education in
British Columbia. Young students are not exposed to Computer Science when they
are learning their fundamentals. Given the correct abstractions like kinesthetic learning activities and graphical programming languages, elementary school students can be exposed to computer science and can understand sophisticated topics like recursion and concurrency. This means that more students’ interest will be piqued and
they will be exposed to sophisticated concepts before first year computer science.
