In this activity about computer programming, learners follow instructions in a variety of ways in order to successfully draw figures.

In this puzzle, learners investigate the decisions involved in linking a network between houses in a muddy city.

In this activity, learners help a poor cartographer color in the countries on a map, making sure each country is colored a different color than any of its neighbors.

This activity about cryptographic techniques illustrates a situation where information is shared, and yet none of it is revealed.

In this computer science activity about finite-state automaton (on page 45 of the PDF), learners use a map and choose various pathways to find Treasure Island.

Computers store drawings, photographs, and other pictures using only numbers. Through this activity, learners decode numbers to create pictures using the same process that computers use.

In this activity (on page 2), one person "programs" the other like a robot to move through a space, trying to get them to avoid obstacles and reach a goal.

In this activity, learners will explore coding by arranging words and phrases to create an order of operations in this low tech version of computer programming.

In this technology activity, learners explore digital imaging and pixels. Learners "transmit" an image to a partner by creating an image on grid paper.

In this activity, learners use cooperation and logical thinking to find solutions to network problems on the playground.

In this activity, learners make their own binary code bracelets by translating their initials into 0s and 1s represented by beads of 2 different colors.

When a lot of people share one network (such as cars using roads, or messages getting through the Internet), there is the possibility that competing processes will create a “deadlock," or an interrupt

In this activity about encryption, learners cut out a secret decoder badge from a handout and use it to encode messages to each other.
