Summary of UTS CT
Introduction
In this document, students are asked various questions related to Computational Thinking (CT) and its applications in daily life. CT is described as a systematic and logical problem-solving approach similar to how computers process information.
Exploring Concepts
After studying CT, students benefit from more effective problem-solving, logical and structured thinking, abstraction skills, and improved decision-making. CT involves four foundational principles: Decomposition, Pattern Recognition, Abstraction, and Algorithm Design.
Students are required to provide examples of implementing CT in everyday activities without using computers, ICT, or robots. Examples include meal preparation, gardening, and project planning.
Collaboration Room
During group discussions, students highlight that Computational Thinking is crucial for solving complex problems systematically and logically. The four foundations of CT are decomposition, pattern recognition, abstraction, and algorithm. They also mention that CT helps in critical and creative thinking.
Examples of situations in today's world that require CT but do not involve computers, ICT, or robots are humanitarian projects, environmental problem-solving, and creating new recipes.
Students demonstrate the application of CT foundations in real-life scenarios, such as identifying learning difficulties, vacation planning steps, shopping for clothes, and following driving instructions.
