Adventures in Computational Thinking By: Cindy Doan

1. CSE 3 Fluency w/Info Technology Computational Thinking Desktop Publishing w/MS Word Dynamic Webpage Programming with JavaScript This course touched upon different aspects of the computer world. I learned how to use HTML, PowerPoint, Alice, and JavaScript. It helped me to better understand how programs work. Through this lab, I was able to learn how to use Microsoft Word in a different level. I learned that you can group your headers to make finding easier. Also, this lab taught how to implement pictures, graphs, and charts into the regular wordings. Visual Programming w/Alice JavaScript taught how to use orders but allowed for calculation. In the TritonJuice lab, I was able to calculate how much a drink would cost based on the type and size of the drink. With my Make-A-Wiish page, people will be able to calculate what award package they will receive based on their donation amount. Alice taught me how to use loops to allow multiple things to occur with one simple call or instruction. Data Analysis & Visualization w/MS Excel Making Info Available to the World w/HTML & Web Pages Presentation of Info w/MS PowerPoint I learned how to use Excel by using my own personal budget. I learned how to create different graphs such as bar and pie charts. Also, I learned how to do simple arithmetic to calculate each segment of my budget. HTML was a big learning objective in this CSE course. Through learning the basic HTML skeleton, I was able to create different types of web pages. Also, I learned different codes to change the writing and insert pictures and links onto my page.
