Solving Problems using CT

Computational Thinking Across the CurriculumFour of the skills used to solve computer science problems can be applied in other classes as well.

What is computational thinking? - Introduction to computational thinking - KS3 Computer Science Revision - BBC BitesizeLearn about the four cornerstones of computational thinking including decomposition, pattern recognition, abstraction and algorithms.

Decomposition

Intro to Decomposition - Real Life Example

What is decomposition?Primary computing resources about computer programming and problem solving strategies including decomposition.

Pattern Recognition

Pattern recognition - Revision 1 - KS3 Computer Science - BBC BitesizeLearn about what pattern recognition is and how it helps us to solve problems in KS3 Computer Science.

Abstraction

CT at Google

Facilitating Software and Game Development though Abstraction

Abstraction - Revision 1 - KS3 Computer Science - BBC BitesizeLearn about what abstraction is and how it helps us to solve problems in KS3 Computer Science.

Algorithm

Planting A Seed - Real Life Algorithms

What is an algorithm?You use code to tell a computer what to do. Before you write code you need an algorithm. An algorithm is a list of steps to follow in order to solve a problem.

Online Quiz

Before computers can be used to solve a problem, the problem itself and the ways in which it could be resolved must be understood. Computational thinking techniques help with these tasks.
