Like coding, analog maps of the subway can be used to teach computational thinking, making the subway system a perfect conduit to teaching computer science ideas without the use of, well, computers. Even better, this kind of “unplugged” approach to teaching computational thinking may be the path that will help us address a looming educational chasm: how to ensure equitable access to computer education across the globe.” (more)
