What Is The 5th C?

It's well recognized that Critical Thinking, Creativity, Collaboration, and Communication (known as the 4 C's) are essential skills for the 21st Century.  As computer continues to permeate every aspect of our life and work,  the 5th C, Computation Thinking, the ability to think like a computer scientist or the ability to use computer to help solve problems, has become as important for a student to succeed in the increasingly more digital world.


At The 5th C Academy, through rigorous and engaging curriculum, we empower students with this new way of thinking. Our curriculum focuses on teaching algorithmic problem solving and computational thinking. We are committed to helping students to build a solid foundation in computer science that will allow them to succeed in their journey no matter what path they choose. 

My children love these courses. They come home each week with such excitement to show us what they have learned. It is fantastic to see and hear their developing understanding of computer programming. Dr. Chen has made the material accessible and a lot of fun.
