Training Students for the New World of
Computational Thinking & AI
Who are We
CTA is an alliance of non-profit and for-profit professional development organizations, digital platform providers, and educational institutions to institute computational thinking (CT) & AI as an important educational asset in all schools across the world.
Why CT is Important
Computational Thinking is a 21st-century skill that, in the information age, is indispensable to all humans. CT provides the structured, analytical approach needed to solve problems.
Why AI is Important
AI is the new alphabet of the modern world. AI leverages CT methodologies to create intelligent systems that can learn, reason, and make decisions on their own.
What do We Do
CTA is dedicated to expanding the notion of CT and AI education from a math and computer science topic to one useful for all students in every corner of their lives. .
How do We do This
CTA enables sponsors to support CT & AI education to have a scalable impact on global K-12 students.
Why We do This
CT & AI education is not institutionalized in an equitable and accessible way.
Computational Thinking Alliance
We bring for-profit and non-profit organizations, digital platform providers, and educational institutions with the following common goals:
To institute computational thinking and AI educaiton as an important educational asset in schools across the world
To accelerate progress in the science of computational thinking and AI learning;
To create a continuous improvement infrastructure based on design-based research in K-12 STEAM learning by combining rapid-cycle evaluation, feedback loops, and machine learning at scale; and
To attract more educational institutions and computer scientists to the field of learning engineering.
