The Importance of Computational Thinking to Train Structured Thinking in Problem Solving

Abstract: Ability to do problem solving will be greatly influenced by how the flow of thinking in decomposing a problem until it finds the root of the problem so that it can determine the best solution. There is currently a growing recognition around the world that all fields require a prerequisite ability, namely to think logically, in a structured manner, and use computational tools to rapidly model and visualize data. This ability is known as Computational Thinking (CT). In this study, the author applied the computat… Show more

“…Design Thinking is carried out to explore the problems/needs faced by the target user so that they can determine the best solution to solve them. Design thinking is very useful in overcoming complex problems with a structured way of thinking [9]: a. Understanding the needs of the people involved b. Reframe the problem, c. Human-centered, d. Generating lots of ideas in a brainstorming session, and e. Adopt a hands-on approach in prototyping and testing ideas.…”

“…Nowadays, many international educational policies emphasize that children should be equipped with computational thinking skills from preschool [ 14 ]. Computational thinking includes four main elements to solve or provide solutions to problems, and these are decomposition, pattern recognition, abstraction and algorithms [ 15 , 16 ]. CT has its roots in the science of how solutions to design challenges can be provided using computers [ 12 , 17 ].…”

“…The second inductively generated key theme is structured thinking. It encompasses cognitive skills involving breaking down complex problems, the ability to recognise patterns and identify important information while ignoring unrelated or irrelevant detail, and finally sequencing the problems logically and orderly for easy understanding, thereby achieving a flow (Andrian & Hikmawan, 2021). Many IBM graduates discovered that after attending the course, they were able to solve their problems with more ease, employ strategies systematically, which in turn provided them with 'flow' in their learning and train of thoughts.…”
