COMPUTATIONAL THINKING
|
This course introduces computational thinking and provides a broad high-level understanding of how computers and related technical developments are changing the world. Students will learn how computers are built and operated, and they will apply computational thinking skills such as algorithmic and procedural thinking, problem decomposition, pattern recognition, and abstraction to write programs and solve problems. Students will also study computing innovations such as the Internet, data and information, artificial intelligence and machine learning, human-computer interaction, and cryptography; and they will explore how these innovations affect privacy, security, intellectual property and other important issues.
