Listen "Mathematics and Computational Thinking"

Episode Synopsis

I was recently reading the May/June 2021 issue of "Science Scope" a publication of the National Science Teaching Association.  In this issue, I read the section "From the Editor's Desk" written by Patty McGinnis.  Patty wrote an article entitled "Mathematics and Computational Thinking: A Bridge to STEM Careers." Science practices have changed drastically over the years as a result of digital tools at the disposal of scientists.  As a result, the sheer volume of data available necessitates an understanding of data management and analytics.
