Dalam era digital, pemahaman mengenai pemrograman dan konsep berpikir komputasional menjadi semakin penting bagi mahasiswa. Kurangnya pemahaman awal tentang konsep-konsep pemrograman dan rasa takut terhadap mata kuliah dasar pemrograman bagi mahasiswa Teknik Kimia menjadi masalah utama. Metode alternatif seperti CSUnplugged, yang mengajarkan konsep pemrograman tanpa komputer, dapat menjadi solusi efektif. Kegiatan pengabdian ini bertujuan untuk memperkenalkan metode CSUnplugged kepada mahasiswa Teknik Kimia, mengatasi hambatan dalam belajar pemrograman, dan meningkatkan keterampilan berpikir komputasional. Pelatihan ini dilakukan dalam tiga tahap: persiapan, pelaksanaan, dan evaluasi, dengan menggunakan permainan yang mengajarkan dasar-dasar komputasi seperti Abstraksi, Algoritma, dan Logika. Hasil evaluasi menunjukkan bahwa mahasiswa yang berpartisipasi memiliki pemahaman yang meningkat terhadap konsep-konsep pemrograman dan keterampilan berpikir komputasional. Rata-rata mahasiswa menyelesaikan soal dan permainan dengan skor 60%, dengan 81% dari mereka menyatakan setuju bahwa metode ini efektif. Kegiatan ini mendukung pencapaian Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) dalam pendidikan berkualitas dan inovasi. Hasil pelatihan menunjukkan potensi besar dari metode CSUnplugged dalam meningkatkan keterampilan komputasi yang esensial untuk masa depan mahasiswa.
Training in Computational Thinking for University Students through CSUnplugged as Strengthening Basic Programming Fundamentals
Abstract
In the digital era, understanding programming and computational thinking concepts is increasingly important for students. A lack of initial understanding of programming concepts and fear of basic programming courses are major issues for Chemical Engineering students. Alternative methods like CSUnplugged, which teaches programming concepts without using computers, can be an effective solution. This community service activity aims to introduce the CSUnplugged method to Chemical Engineering students, address barriers to learning programming, and enhance computational thinking skills. The training was conducted in three stages: preparation, implementation, and evaluation, using games that teach the basics of computation such as Abstraction, Algorithms, and Logic. The evaluation results show that participating students improved their understanding of programming concepts and computational thinking skills. On average, students completed tasks and games with a score of 60%, with 81% agreeing that the method is effective. This activity supports the achievement of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in quality education and innovation. The training results demonstrate the significant potential of the CSUnplugged method in enhancing computational skills essential for students' future success.
