Weintrop, David; Holbert, Nathan; Horn, Michael S.; Wilensky, Uri – International Journal of Game-Based Learning, 2016
Video games offer an exciting opportunity for learners to engage in computational thinking in informal contexts. This paper describes a genre of learning environments called constructionist video games that are especially well suited for developing learners' computational thinking skills. These games blend features of conventional video games with…
