Computational Thinking

What is computational thinking? I just created a brief presentation for teacher PD to explain some of the key concepts of computational thinking. I think the simplest explanation is that computational thinking = solving problems logically!


Powtoon is a great online tool to use to create short videos. My presentation is embedded below, but it may take a moment to load. The other resource that I used in this presentation was Bebras 365. I included two of their past questions as examples of problems that require computational thinking.
