Abstract

Introduction to Computer Science, as one of the fundamental courses in computer-related majors, plays an important role in the cultivation of computer professionals. However, traditional teaching models and content can no longer fully meet the needs of modern information technology development. In response to these issues, this article introduces the concept of computational creative thinking, optimizes course content, adopts exploratory teaching methods, and innovates course assessment methods, aiming to comprehensively enhance students’ computational thinking and innovative abilities. By continuously improving and promoting this teaching model, it will undoubtedly promote computer education in universities to a new level.
