Introduction to Computational Thinking with a Parallel Perspective
Topical — 2012
This workshop aims to expose participants to and inspire them with new techniques, teaching materials, and applications to use computational models in the undergraduate curriculum. By bringing faculty and teachers from different disciplines together so that they can learn how to incorporate computational models into their classrooms and research projects, it will advance the use of computing in undergraduate science education. We desire to have participants from a broad range of disciplines, including computer science, mathematics, and the physical and life sciences.

Details
The purpose of this workshop is to expose and inspire participants with new techniques, teaching materials, and applications to use computational models in the undergraduate curriculum. The Computational Thinking with a Parallel Perspective workshop goal is to form collaboration between faculty and teachers from different disciplines so that they can learn to incorporate computational models into classroom and research projects to advance the use of computing in undergraduate science education, mathematics, and physical and life science. During this event, we will also focus on parallel thinking and resources to prepare graduate students, college faculty, as well as high school teachers for modeling and simulation for new parallel computing environments.
