Abstract

Fundamental skills acquired by undergraduate students during their academic, play a crucial role in their career. One such skill is computational thinking (CT), which will help to solve problems algorithmically using computers. Computational thinking will improve their problem solving skills in a non-conventional manner as this leads the student to think in multiple paths to reach the solution. However, it is a challenge in Computing Education to develop student's ability to solve problems in an algorithmic way. The aim of this paper is to introduce a potential and pragmatic approach to develop computational thinking skills in novices.

在计算机教育中培养新手计算思维技能的实用方法
大学生在学习期间获得的基本技能对他们的职业生涯起着至关重要的作用。其中一项技能是计算思维(CT),这将有助于用计算机算法解决问题。计算思维将以一种非常规的方式提高他们解决问题的能力,因为它引导学生从多种途径思考以达到解决方案。然而,如何培养学生用算法解决问题的能力,一直是计算机教育面临的挑战。本文的目的是介绍一种潜在的和实用的方法来发展计算思维技能的新手。
