About

Tough as Nails, Nimble Fingers

Computational thinking represents a series of foundational concepts and practical skills to help students better collect and organize data, draw connections among such data, and develop explanatory models based on such information. More simply, computational thinking is about leveraging digital technology, particularly computing, to address issues of systems and practice, and promoting computers as devices to facilitate better communication rather than just calculation.

 

The Tough As Nails, Nimble Fingers project (Tough as Nails), which is funded by the National Science Foundation, aims to draw more attention to the resilience, promise, and potential of rural communities to develop their own computing pathways.
