From the article:
"We want to propose that beginner coders could start with an attractive and engaging activity, but should also explicitly develop what could be called "the coding mindset."
This mindset represents a gradual development of computer programming knowledge and strategies, but also includes analyzing systems, solving problems, persisting in front of errors, being resourceful and collaborating.
To teach the coding mindset, educators need to include more explicit foundational computer science concepts and competencies, such as creating algorithms to solve problems, debugging existing programs, and designing systems to accomplish new tasks or gather data.
Learning to code should not be intimidating. But it should fulfil promises, not simply hype mythic dreams."
