A total of 88 undergraduate and graduate students participated in the lesson. The project was the result of a collaboration between education faculty and a computer science professor from another university. The CT lesson was a basic robot design activity adapted for different course formats: face-to-face, online, and blended. The author\u2019s impressions of how the students responded to the activity, what they learned about CT, and future directions for integrating CT into teacher education curricula are also discussed.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Powers, J., &amp; Azhar, M.
