Research on cultivating computational thinking in university computer courses - Based on PBL strategies

Abstract

This study focuses on the cultivation of computational thinking in the "University Computer" course, proposing a teaching model strategy based on PBL (Problem-Based Learning). By designing authentic and challenging teaching problems, students are guided to actively explore and collaborate to solve them, thereby cultivating their computational thinking abilities. The research found that the PBL teaching model can effectively enhance students' computational thinking skills, as well as strengthen their problem-solving and innovation abilities. Additionally, this study also discusses the issues and challenges encountered during implementation, providing valuable insights for future teaching practices.
