Computational Thinking!

Computational Thinking!

1. Algorithms

   • Making steps and rules. An Algorithm is a precise sequence of instructions, or a set of rules, for performing a task

2. Decomposition

   • Breaking down into parts. Decomposition is breaking a problem or system down into its parts

3. Evaluation

   • Making judgement. We use evaluations when we make judgements based on different factors, such as design criteria and user needs

4. Abstraction

   • Removing unnecessary detail. Abstraction is identifying what's important and leaving out detail we do not need

5. Logic

   • Predicting and analysing. Logic helps us to establish and check facts, and make predictions.

6. Patterns

   • Spotting and using similarities. By spotting patterns we can make predictions, create rules and solve other problems
