    For many rural teachers and students, the notion of “computational thinking” sounds like a novelty and nice-to-have from far away cities, rather than an essential competency relevant to their local context. However, two Appalachian school districts, in a research practice partnership, have begun to look for connections between rural heritage stories and computational thinking, to help students grow as community problem solvers. The team has collected several local “ingenuity stories” and began to analyze what the local flavor of ingenuity is, and direct tie-ins to computational thinking. The stories have been inspiring, but it takes some thoughtful interviewing to identify the exact connections to computational thinking. Come hear about the first round of research findings, and think with us about ways to move forward so we can ground computing education in local rural contexts.
