Computational thinking
Problem-solving
1 decomposition
2 abstractions
3 pattern recognition
4 algorithmic thinking
Computational thinking: it is a problem-solving
process that involves breaking down complex
problems into smaller, and manageable parts, it’s
a mindset and set of problem-solving
1-Decomposition: it is the process to solve a
complex problem, so to do that you need to
first break it down into smaller and more
manageable parts
2- Abstraction: it is when you extract the most
relevant information from each decomposed
problem, so when we have lots of
information, we only take out the necessary
information this helps to define and know
exactly what needs to be done to solve the
problem as a whole.
3-Pattern recognition: it is the process of
identifying patterns in a data set to
categorize, process and resolve the
information more effectively.
It is also when we decompose a complex
problem, we often find the smaller problems
we create. The patterns are similarities or
, characteristics that some of the problem
share.
4-Algorithmic thinking: it is how we approach a
problem it gives us the ability to approach
problems logically and systematically. And to
break the problem that we are trying to solve
down into smaller and more manageable
parts for us to develop efficient solutions.
it is also creating a clear and logical set of
instructions that we can follow to solve a
problem
