The Coding Maestros Project: Blending STEAM and Non-STEAM Subjects Through Computational Thinking
Abstract
The Coding Maestros project is the result of music and dance meeting coding through the application of computational thinking in an informal, cross-grade, student-led K12 context. The underlying research goal was for the authors mentoring this inter-disciplinary STEAM initiative to build a shared framework in order to experiment with the application of computational thinking in a series of guided discovery learning sessions and, for the students to develop a deeper understanding of, and benefit from holistic, inquiry-based learning, apply logical, critical and creative thinking to further develop their problem-solving skills outside the boundaries and expectations of formal learning, through trans-disciplinary collaboration. The framework, process, and outcomes are presented in this chapter. The culminating presentations/ performances demonstrated that ACS Athens students enjoyed remarkable learning experiences that attracted and sustained their attention, developed their problem-solving skills, and sparked their curiosity to pursue deeper learning in any of the STEAM-related fields.
