Hello,<br>
<br>
I am a part of a team which is undergoing training in pedagogy for primary<br>
and secondary school children. In the classes for Introductory Mathematical<br>
Thinking, we teach flowcharts to students. The basic elements like start,<br>
stop, process, user I/O and diamond boxes, along with conditionals and<br>
looping constructs are taught to them, without explicitly telling them<br>
about the fine intricacies.<br>
<br>
As a result, the students learn to apply algorithmic thinking to questions,<br>
which we value as an essential skill in problem solving in various domains.<br>
The students quickly pick up the basic syntax for flowcharts and are<br>
usually creative in making them for mathematical as well as everyday tasks.<br>
<br>
So could we make a similar activity for Sugarizer? We are already working<br>
on a prototype for a JS version for the team and teaching. I believe it<br>
will be a great addition to the Sugarizer set. Let me know your thoughts.<br>
If yes, I can share the feature set and what exactly I propose to build.<br>
<br>
Stay safe,<br>
Regards,<br>
Utkarsh<br><br>
