Computational Thinking

This Introduction to Computational Thinking gives an overview to our five foundations:

  1. Abstraction
  2. Decomposition
  3. Pattern Recognition
  4. Data Representation
  5. Algorithms

Finally, Using Computational Thinking offers ideas of how to put these concepts into practice.
