Frequently Asked Question

Decomposition. Decomposition is the process of breaking down a problem or challenge – even a complex one – into small, manageable parts. Abstraction. ... Pattern recognition. ... Algorithm design. ...

Computational thinking is about solving problems, designing systems and understanding human behaviour. This module will teach you to reformulate seemingly difficult problems into solvable ones by using processes such as reduction, embedding, transformation or simulation.

The "three As" Computational Thinking Process describes computational thinking as a set of three steps: abstraction, automation, and analysis.

AI is about providing computers with the ability to think like humans, while computational thinking is about improving the problem- solving capability of humans by leveraging the way a computer “thinks” when it solves problems. Humans have developed increasingly powerful tools.

At its core, computational thinking helps to solve complex problems, which is the same basis that inspires innovative solutions to these problems. Without the ability to problem-solve using computational thinking, it would be difficult to define and replicate innovative solutions to modern problems.

Computational thinking is present even in the most routine activities of everyday life. Whether organizing their schoolwork, planning a bike route, or deciding the best way to approach a task, students are constantly engaging in abstraction.

Algorithms can help you develop superior critical thinking and problem solving skills, someone has to first create these powerful algorithms after all. By developing your algorithmic thinking you'll be better positioned to tackle whatever problem you encounter and have the skills to create the perfect solution

With the computational thinking process, it may be difficult to accurately predict markets, trends, users, and all technical influences. As a result, there are too many variables involved that can complicate any given scenario and make it too difficult to model accurately.
