Ignite My Future in School is a pioneering effort to empower educators through a transdisciplinary approach that integrates computational thinking into core subjects like English, Math, Science, Art, and Social Studies. Computational Thinking is a higher-level process, whereby students can learn how to collect and analyze data, find patterns, decompose complex problems, abstract, build models and develop algorithms. The program also offers year-round assistance through its Learning Leaders Network – a responsive and involved nationwide network of teachers, Community Nights – an immersive and interactive event for students, teachers and families to experience the curriculum and Days of Discovery – an in-person professional development training for educators to meet with program experts and understand the curriculum.
