Computational Thinkers

Computational Thinkers: Students develop and employ strategies for understanding and solving problems in ways that leverage the power of technological methods to develop and test solutions.

Students:

Formulate problem definitions suited for technology-assisted methods such as data analysis, abstract models, and algorithmic thinking in exploring and finding solutions.
Collect data or identify relevant data sets, use digital tools to analyze them, and represent data in various ways to facilitate problem-solving and decision-making.
Break problems into component parts, extract key information, and develop descriptive models to understand complex systems or facilitate problem-solving.
Understand how automation works and use algorithmic thinking to develop a sequence of steps to create and test automated solutions.
