PPT-Adventures in computational

thinking By Savannah Roberts CSE 3 Fluency with Information Technology Computational Thinking Introduction Course Overview This is for nonengineering majors In this course we will learn to be proficient with certain computer applications. By Daniel Lee. CSE 3. Fluency with Information Technology. (FIT). Computational . Thinking is thinking at multiple levels of abstraction. For solving problems. For designing systems. For understanding the power and limits of human and machine intelligence. Batmen Camp. Outreach Program. Dr. Suzanne . Shontz. Department of Mathematics and Statistics.

The thought processes involved in formulating problems and their solutions so that the solutions are represented in a form that can be effectively carried out by an information processing agent [Wing-. Abstraction. Abstraction. Goals. What is abstraction?. Is it teachable?. How to assess?. Abstraction has two facets. “Removing detail to simplify and focus attention” [p38]. “identifying the common core or essence” [p38]. Khaninyova Diana 7 . «. B. ». Teacher: Baeva Marina Leonidovna. .
