Abstract

With the rapid development of the computer science and network technology, the capabilities of using computer for Economics and Management students in colleges are requested to be further improved and perfect. Now, however, the computer courses for the college Economics and Management professional exists the gap between the knowledge/skills instruction and demand for future computing capabilities, which causes a crisis in computer basic education. This paper proposes a way to deal with the crisis, which integrates the education of computational thinking with the Economics and Management professional. Based on this idea, the contents of the computer course are reconstructed to focus on the education of computing thinking, which will instruct a universal thinking for the computing disciplines. In addition, the thinking-type teaching methods of the college computer course are investigated.
