3 Informatics / computer science: what is it? According to Italian Ministry of Education (guidelines for secondary schools) Violetta Lonati - Extracurricular Activities to Improve the Perception of Informatics in Secondary Schools 1 / 17
4 Informatics / computer science: what is it? Another informatics... Violetta Lonati - Extracurricular Activities to Improve the Perception of Informatics in Secondary Schools 1 / 17
5 Informatics / computer science: what is it? According to ACM Turing Awards motivations Violetta Lonati - Extracurricular Activities to Improve the Perception of Informatics in Secondary Schools 1 / 17
6 Computer science and computers We need to do away with the myth that computer science is about computers. Computer science is no more about computers than astronomy is about telescopes, biology is about microscopes or chemistry is about beakers and test tubes. Science is not about tools, it is about how we use them and what we find out when we do. Micheal R. Fellows, Ian Parberry Violetta Lonati - Extracurricular Activities to Improve the Perception of Informatics in Secondary Schools 2 / 17

9 Three key words for Informatics Automatic Processing of Information Violetta Lonati - Extracurricular Activities to Improve the Perception of Informatics in Secondary Schools 3 / 17
10 of Information What is information? How can symbols/numbers be used to represent it? Violetta Lonati - Extracurricular Activities to Improve the Perception of Informatics in Secondary Schools 4 / 17
11 Processing How can information be manipulated/changed in order to produce new knowledge? Violetta Lonati - Extracurricular Activities to Improve the Perception of Informatics in Secondary Schools 5 / 17
12 Automatic Which manipulations can be performed by a mechanical interpreter? How this can be done? Violetta Lonati - Extracurricular Activities to Improve the Perception of Informatics in Secondary Schools 6 / 17
13 Algomotricity - a methodological approach Algomotricity means to perform or implement an informatic process by motorial/physical/manipulative/playful/concrete/tactile activities using some form of dramatization. Violetta Lonati - Extracurricular Activities to Improve the Perception of Informatics in Secondary Schools 7 / 17
14 Algomotricity - a methodological approach Algomotricity means to perform or implement an informatic process by motorial/physical/manipulative/playful/concrete/tactile activities using some form of dramatization. Use of computer Computers and software tools should be of secondary importance, but the conceptual link with them should be clear.

15 Algomotricity - a methodological approach Algomotricity means to perform or implement an informatic process by motorial/physical/manipulative/playful/concrete/tactile activities using some form of dramatization. Use of computer Computers and software tools should be of secondary importance, but the conceptual link with them should be clear. Background Problem based learning, experiential learning theory, active learning, allosteric environment, kinesthetic learning activity,... Violetta Lonati - Extracurricular Activities to Improve the Perception of Informatics in Secondary Schools 7 / 17
16 Background - Problem-based learning (PBL) PBL designs an educational environment promoting the investigation, explanation, and resolution of meaningful problems. In PBL, students work in small collaborative groups and learn what they need to know in order to solve a problem. [Barrows, 1960s] Violetta Lonati - Extracurricular Activities to Improve the Perception of Informatics in Secondary Schools 8 / 17
17 Background - Experiential learning theory It is the process whereby knowledge is created through the transformation of experience. Immediate or concrete experiences are the basis for observations and reflections, these reflections are assimilated and distilled into abstract concepts from which new implications for action can be drawn. [Kolb, 1970s] Violetta Lonati - Extracurricular Activities to Improve the Perception of Informatics in Secondary Schools 9 / 17
18 Background - Active learning The responsibility of learning is on learners They must read, write, discuss, or be engaged in solving problems. Active learning engages students in two aspects: doing things, and thinking about the things they are doing (metacognition). [Bonwell and Eison, 1991] Violetta Lonati - Extracurricular Activities to Improve the Perception of Informatics in Secondary Schools 10 / 17
19 Background - Allosteric environment The direct transmission of knowledge should be kept to a minimum, the teacher becomes a mediator who has to propose a heuristic environment that may interfere with the learner sitting conceptions; pupils should be free to explore a situation in order to reconsider their mental models by discovering concepts autonomously. [Giordan 1996] Violetta Lonati - Extracurricular Activities to Improve the Perception of Informatics in Secondary Schools 11 / 17
20 Algomotricity Aim: replacing an abstract symbolic manipulation by physical activities, which should help the pupils in developing a suitable mental representation of the informatic process considered. Violetta Lonati - Extracurricular Activities to Improve the Perception of Informatics in Secondary Schools 12 / 17
21 Algomotricity Aim: replacing an abstract symbolic manipulation by physical activities, which should help the pupils in developing a suitable mental representation of the informatic process considered. The cognitive process: 1 the physical activity focuses on the informatic process considered Violetta Lonati - Extracurricular Activities to Improve the Perception of Informatics in Secondary Schools 12 / 17
22 Algomotricity Aim: replacing an abstract symbolic manipulation by physical activities, which should help the pupils in developing a suitable mental representation of the informatic process considered. The cognitive process: 1 the physical activity focuses on the informatic process considered 2 the process is repeated, generalized and analyzed by pencil and paper Violetta Lonati - Extracurricular Activities to Improve the Perception of Informatics in Secondary Schools 12 / 17
23 Algomotricity Aim: replacing an abstract symbolic manipulation by physical activities, which should help the pupils in developing a suitable mental representation of the informatic process considered. The cognitive process: 1 the physical activity focuses on the informatic process considered 2 the process is repeated, generalized and analyzed by pencil and paper 3 the relationship with computer is clarified by an experimental activity through the use of specifically conceived software.

24 Some workshops we propose Grade 4 th 7 th 8 th 11 th 12 th 13 th information Wikipasta Human Pixels Human Pixels (adv.) automation Mazes Mazes (adv.) processing Greedy Money (simpl.) Greedy Money 60 classes (10-16 year old students) involved in 2-hours workshops On demand by accompanying teachers, we then organized 4 training seminars for teachers (around 70 participants) Violetta Lonati - Extracurricular Activities to Improve the Perception of Informatics in Secondary Schools 13 / 17
25 Some workshops we propose Human pixels: on the digital representation of images. video of animations made in stadiums by coordinated soccer teams supporters ( human LCD ) pupils are asked to discuss how to set up a very simplified version of such animations Violetta Lonati - Extracurricular Activities to Improve the Perception of Informatics in Secondary Schools 14 / 17
26 Some workshops we propose Human pixels: on the digital representation of images. they eventually discover grids, sampling, resolution, compression,... finally, pupils are provided with a multi-view editor showing a picture along with different representations. Violetta Lonati - Extracurricular Activities to Improve the Perception of Informatics in Secondary Schools 14 / 17
27 Some workshops we propose Mazes: on programming. pupils have to guide verbally a human robot (a blindfolded mate) through a simple path. they have to chose a very limited set of primitives and compose them into a program possibility of exploiting three basic control structures (if, repeat-until, repeat-n-times) Violetta Lonati - Extracurricular Activities to Improve the Perception of Informatics in Secondary Schools 15 / 17
28 Some workshops we propose Mazes: on programming. finally, pupils are provided with a visual programming language (a simplified version of MIT Scratch) and are asked to write programs guiding a sprite through mazes of increasing complexity. Violetta Lonati - Extracurricular Activities to Improve the Perception of Informatics in Secondary Schools 15 / 17
29 Some workshops we propose Greedy money: on greedy algorithms. change-making problem with a set of coins that admits a greedy solution. how to apply the same strategy to a scheduling problem? (namely: maximizing the number of movies to be seen in a film festival whose program contains several, partially overlapping movies) Violetta Lonati - Extracurricular Activities to Improve the Perception of Informatics in Secondary Schools 16 / 17
30 Some workshops we propose Greedy money: on greedy algorithms. find analogies between the two problems towards an abstract description of a greedy procedure. evaluate the suitability of the strategy in finding the optimal solution, with the support of software that generates at random a set of movies, rearranging them according to a chosen sorting criterion, and applying the greedy procedure. Violetta Lonati - Extracurricular Activities to Improve the Perception of Informatics in Secondary Schools 16 / 17
31 Some workshops we propose Wikipasta: on the role of text formatting and how to represent the meta-information it conveys. activity with pieces of pasta and other small objects discovery of mark-up languages introduction of a lightweight wiki syntax editing of Wikipedia-like pages Violetta Lonati - Extracurricular Activities to Improve the Perception of Informatics in Secondary Schools 17 / 17
32 Conclusions To convey a view of informatics as a scientific discipline, as opposed to the current mis-perception of the field, we propose: some core aspects of informatics to both pupils and teachers, a methodological approach to informatics teachers.
