Social discussion of CS in K-12

["Reese, George Clifford" <reese AT illinois.edu>]

I think this will be a good discussion topic for a swift pint.

Subject: [Ctrl-Shift] Wolfram touts Wolfram Language as way to teach 
computational thinking

I've read about half of this very long blog post by Stephen Wolfram so far. 
I'm waffling between finding this a very technocentric presentation, stating 
"How Wolfram Language is teaching Computational Thinking", and wondering 
whether this might be a tool teachers and students could use to leverage 
their hard work of advancing computation thinking, making their work more 
effective. Anyone have any experience using Wolfram Language as a tool for 
advancing computational thinking?
