When engaging in computational thinking, problem-solving and critical thinking skills are practiced and exercised. Supporting students as they learn to employ computational thinking will prepare them for jobs and careers that don’t even exist yet. Today, we hope to help our listeners demystify computational thinking and learn ways that they may integrate the foundational skills involved. We dive deeper into four foundational skills: abstraction, algorithms, decomposition, and patterns (or pattern recognition). You are most likely already using some, if not all, of these components of computational thinking. Visit AVID Open Access to learn more.
