The Workshop on Teaching Computational Science (WTCS), taking place within the International Conference on Computational
Science (ICCS), is a platform for discussing innovations in teaching computational science in its various aspects, e.g. modeling
and simulation, at all levels and contexts. Innovations may cover the context of formal courses or self-directed learning,
involving, for example, curriculum development, introductory programming, service courses, specialist undergraduate and
postgraduate topics, as well as industry-related short courses. This editorial provides an introduction to the work presented during
the sessions in Amsterdam.
