Abstract

Board game Coding Computational thinking Game-based learning Artificial Intelligence Computer Networks and Communications Computer Science Applications Education Urban Studies
The promotion of computational thinking education has become a worldwide trend. To cultivate the computational thinking ability of children at young age, many computational thinking board games have appeared recently. This article introduces five computational thinking board games, including Robot Turtles, King of Pirates, Doggy Code, ROBOT WARS Coding Board Game, and Code master, and then to analyze its characteristics respectively. Additionally, this article also points out the current limitations and challenges of computational thinking board games. We hope more schools or operators will join the development of computational thinking education in the future.
