About

Computational Thinking Illustrated is a project of Benjamin Chun and Tim Piotrowski.

In our Kickstarter project description, we wrote:

New approaches to computer science education are under active development. The College Board plans to introduce a new AP course and exam (CS Principles) in the next few years. Google recently launched a portal for Exploring Computational Thinking resources. Many people — and businesses — recognize the importance of computer science education.

But none of these people have cartoons.

We’re here to fill that lonely void with professional, CC-licensed illustrations.

There’s also a much longer blog post that gives more history and context.
