数学建模通常用于表示、分析和模拟自然和人造系统。招聘广告经常需要计算思维能力,而且几乎每天都有新职位空缺。然而,申请这些工作的人还不够多。许多高中毕业的学生没有计算机科学方面的经验,他们认为,因为他们没有经验的程序员,他们不适合提到机器学习或大数据等术语的工作。为了消除这样一种误解,即计算思维是编程的同义词,一项新的倡议提议将计算思维嵌入到课程科目中。我们讨论了一项这样的努力及其在美国高中课程实施中令人鼓舞的结果。
Mathematical modeling is routinely used to represent, analyze, and simulate natural and human-made systems. Job ads frequently require computational thinking skills, and new positions open practically daily. However, not enough people apply for these jobs. Many students graduating from high school have no experience in computer science, believing that because they are not experienced programmers, they are not cut out for jobs mentioning terms like machine learning or big data. A new initiative to eliminate the misconception that to think computationally is a synonym to programming proposes embedding computational thinking into curricular subjects. We discuss one such effort and its encouraging results from a curriculum implementation in a US high school.
