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. http://. uoregon.edu/~moursund/dave/index.htm. “Computational . thinking is a fundamental skill for everybody, not just for computer scientists. To reading, writing, and arithmetic, we should add computational thinking to every child’s analytical ability. Enrico Pontelli. Department of Computer Science. New Mexico State University. The buzzword…. “Computational Thinking” . 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]. Jeannette M. Wing. Assistant Director.
