"Computational thinking is creating and making use of different levels of abstraction to understand and solve problems more effectively; thinking algorithmically; and understanding the consequences of scale" (Carnegie Mellon University Center for Computational Thinking). Many educators simply say that ...
For example, Russell and Norvig (2010) clusters the definitions of AI using a “humanly vs. Rationally” distinction and an “acting vs. thinking” distinction. I do not make those distinctions, because according to the above analysis, all the AI definitions can be seen as abstractions of ...
If you really want people to only express the algorithms in code, then I would say that correctness should be the primary criteria, followed by speed (speed or throughput? ... I'm thinking about the use of memory mapped files in the last contest). Is memory usage...
This fact is reflected in the recently released Next Generation Science Standards and the decision to include "computational thinking" as a core scientific practice. With this addition, and the increased presence of computation in mathematics and scientific contexts, a new urgency has come to the ...

gaps that exist in the collected set of activities, specific advances in STEM fields that were made possible through CT, and suggested ways that CT integration in K-12 can evolve to reach what the CT integration framework proposes as five "computational thinking integration elements" or "CTIEs"...
computational tools practices,and systemic thinking practices.Findings:Our results demonstrate the tools(CT)employed in the PS process in CH and CA mathematics textbooks.The strong connections between the"look back"stage and CT tools were explored.During the"look back"stage,bot...
