Introduction to Computational Thinking (NL)

Computational thinking is an essential skill for anyone wanting to learn to program computers and write code. This workshop takes you through the steps involved in computational thinking, learning how to break down complex problems into smaller parts, identify patterns, and design logical solutions that a computer can execute. Through hands-on activities, you practice techniques such as problem decomposition, abstraction, and algorithmic thinking. By the end of the session, you have a stronger foundation for approaching programming tasks with confidence, setting the stage for future coding and data-driven learning. This session is designed for beginners who are curious about programming but may not know where to start. It’s especially valuable for those exploring computer science or data science for the first time, or for people in non-technical fields who want to build problem-solving and coding skills.
