Four pillars of Computational Thinking

"No problem can be solved from the same level of consciousness that created it" - A. Einstein

Pillars

1. Decomposition: Break down the problem into smaller problems/parts. 2. Abstraction: Focusing on the important information only. 3. Logic/Pattern Recognition: Looking for similarities, past experience. 4. Algorithm: Step by step solution.

¡Vamos!

Decomposition:

What is the problem?

How can it be solved?

What is needed to solve it?

Abstraction:

"Am I going to be late?"

"Do I have enough fuel?"

"Do I have the tools?"

"Where can I get tools?"

FOCUS ON THE MAIN PROBLEM

Pattern Recognition:

It is the second time this happen

This happened to me before

Find previous pattern for future risk solving

How can it be compared

I know someone that can help me

My father taught me

Get as many information as you can

Experience will help to find solutions

Algorithm:

What is the correct order of steps to follow?

Get the car to a safe spot so you can work.

Loosen the wheel nuts with the socket wrench.

Remove the wheel nuts.

Lift the car using the jack.

Get the tools you need.

Screw the nuts without tightening them.

Place the spare tire.

Remove the flat tire.

Lower the car.

Tighten the nuts.

¡Vamos!
