SPECIAL REPORT / Digital competences and ICT skills are seen as key for young people to integrate in the job market. Jobseekers will have a harder time finding work without them.

 

Today, 90% of all jobs are expected to require at least a basic level of ICT skills. By 2020, Europe is expected to see a shortage of more than 800,000 professionals with computing skills. More and more countries or regions are therefore now including computer programming as part of school curricula.

From my own experience, you never know when your knowledge of coding will be useful, but you know it will one day. The earlier we familiarise ourselves with it, the better (no need to go over board though).

How do we get people connecting with each other?

insight: Sandy (Alex) Pentland is one of my favorite professors. His work on non verbal communication is very interesting. His articles and videos are listed here on his website: http://web.media.mit.edu/~sandy/

In the universe of computer science, the definition and application of computational thinking is widely acknowledged as a pathway to problem solving, easily transferable to other academic subjects and even everyday life.

delta14's curator insight, September 4, 2015 9:24 AM

Computational thinking (CT) es un proceso orientado a la solución de problemas, particularmente  los relativos a aplicaciones computacionales, pero que no deja de ser útil en otras disciplinas. Google ofrece una serie de recursos para experimentar, ganar destreza y conocimientos en CT, lo cual es vital para la programación de computadoras.
