What is Computational Thinking? | Problem-Solving Skills | Computer Science Ep. 2

In this video we’ll familiarise ourselves with the key concepts and practices of computational thinking. We’ll reflect on how CT can be offered across curriculum and offer cross-curricular examples. Covering decomposition, abstraction, pattern recognition and algorithms - and how the concepts of computational thinking can be related back to everyday, real-life activities. We’ll learn more about tinkering, creating, persevering, debugging, collaborating..
