The Computational Thinking MOOC was designed and taught by an interdisciplinary team of faculty members at a large university in the midwest region of the United States. The course was designed specifically for a target audience of later pre-college learners (e.g., high school juniors and seniors) and early college learners (e.g., college freshmen) who are interested in STEM disciplines and the computational tools used in those disciplines, such as data analysis and visualization tools. It was designed to serve as an introductory course with no prerequisite programming experience. Rather, the course aims to prepare students with the modes of thinking needed to set up problems and potential solutions to a level where they could then use computational tools and programming to address those problems.
