Internationally respected experts in computing education are draw on research in the field to offer guidance on teaching and learning, exploring key concepts, pedagogical approaches and assessment practices, and covering a range of topics, including:
· Computer science curricula
· Computer science as a discipline
· Computational thinking
· Teaching programming
· Programming misconceptions
· Assessment
· Mindset and attitudes
· Diversity and inclusion
· Language and computing
· Interaction and the world
Providing comprehensive and unique coverage, highlights include: a comprehensive taxonomy of programming misconceptions from Juha Sorva, an updated discussion of computational thinking by Shuchi Grover and Roy Pea and a detailed look at issues of equity in computer science education by Jill Denner and Shannon Campe. Teachers' and pupils' attitudes to computer science are considered by Quintin Cutts and Peter Donaldson, Paul Curzon and colleagues explore a range of different strategies for teaching computer science concepts, and Ira Diethelm and her colleagues highlight the difficulties presented by the language we use to talk about computer science.
The book is structured to support the reader with chapter outlines, synopses and key points. Explanations of key concepts, real-life examples and reflective points keep the theory grounded in classroom practice: essential for the critical and reflective classroom practitioner.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
