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]. Ovidiu P. â. rvu. , PhD student. Department of . Computer Science.

To reading, writing, and arithmetic, we should add computational thinking to every child’s analytical ability. Ovidiu P. â. rvu. , PhD student. Department of . Computer Science.
