TERC is thrilled to bring its beloved Zoombinis game to the world of teachers. We have worked tirelessly on the research behind how Zoombinis supports students' computational thinking skills. With our partners FableVision, we now have a complete turnkey program for the classroom with the capability for teachers to track their students' progress and assessment.
If you are a teacher or know a teacher who would love to get started, we are offering our TERC friends a 50% discount. Sign up for an account here and use the code TERC50 through March 1, 2021.
Zoombinis is an engaging and challenging logic puzzle game, designed to
Computational Thinking (CT) is a systematic approach to solving problems that is foundational to computer science and many other subjects. There are four major facets of CT: problem decomposition, pattern recognition, abstraction, and algorithm design. Zoombinis is designed to help teach these concepts to students through 12 levels of challenging puzzles.
