Abstract :
This work in progress explores the landscape of computing learning resources and environments found on the web together with teaching and learning materials that can facilitate the integration of “computational thinking” into the K-12 classroom. In specific, this paper focuses in finding and describing existing learning environments that integrate computational thinking into a STEM discipline together with lesson plans, activities and other curricula.
