The Computer Science Activity Book is a simple, hands-on, coloring book-like introduction to computer science concepts for non-technical readers.
Featured on the list of Great STEM Books for Girls and Boys on STEM Kids Chicago.
The Computer Science Activity Book is the perfect companion for curious youngsters — or grown-ups who think they’ll never understand some of the basics of how computers work. Work through this brief, coloring book-like collection of fun and innovative hands-on exercises and learn some basic programming concepts and computer terminology that form the foundation of a STEM education. You’ll learn a bit about historical figures like Charles Babbage, Ada Lovelace, Grace Hopper, and Alan Turing; how computers store data and run programs; and how the parts of a computer work together (like the hard drive, RAM, and CPU). Draw a garden of flowers using loops, create creatures with conditional statements, and just have a bit of fun.
