1
What is computational thinking?
Using a set of techniques and approaches to solve problems
Thinking like a computer - in binary
Giving instructions to a computer
2
Which of these would NOT be involved in decomposing a problem?
Think how the problem can be divided into smaller parts
Adding more parts to the problem so it becomes more complex
Working out who could help you solve part of the problem
3
Which of the following does NOT contain a pattern?
All dogs have tails
My dogs like swimming
Teachers are pedantic
Our dogs like walks
4
What is abstraction?
The process of adding specific details
The process of filtering out unnecessary detail
The process of adding extra characteristics
The process of filtering out irrelevant characteristics
5
Which of the following is NOT an example of computational thinking?
Planning how to beat your enemies in a video game level
Accidentally completing a video game level
Planning what to collect to complete a video game level
6
Why do we decompose a complex problem?
To make it easier to solve
To make it more difficult to solve
To change the problem we have
7
Which of the following contains a pattern?
All cars have wheels
My friends car has an MP3 player
My car is blue

9
What is a complex problem?
A problem that, at first, is not easy to understand
A problem that, at first, is not easy to solve or understand
A problem that, at first, is not easy to solve
10
Which of the following is an example of thinking computationally?
Planning out your route when going to meet a friend
When meeting a friend, asking a parent to plan your route
When meeting a friend, wandering around until you find them
11
Which computational thinking technique involves breaking a problem down into smaller parts?

Pattern Recognition
Algorithms
Decomposition
12
Which is the following is an example of thinking computationally
When going to meet a friend, wander around till you find him
Planning out your route when meeting a friend
When going to meet a friend, asking a parent to plan a route
13
Why do we need to look for patterns in problems
Patterns make it easier for us to solve complex problems
We don't need to look for patterns
Patterns make it more difficult to solve complex problems
14

op
ov
at
il
15
Why do we need to think computationally?
To help us to think like a computer
To help us solve complex problems more easily
To help us to program
16
Which of the following contains a pattern?
All parrots have wings
May parrot can say "hello boys"
This parrot is blue and green
17
To write a computer program, how many computational thinking techniques are usually required?
Six
Three
Two
Four
18
Which of the following is NOT a computational thinking technique?
Decomposition
Abstraction
Coding
Pattern recognition
19
How often do we decompose a complex problem?
Occasionally, but we don't really need to
We never decompose them - the computer does it for us
On a daily basis, often without thinking about it
20
What is pattern recognition?
Breaking a complex problem into smaller problems
Looking for similarities among and within problems
Building models from patterns
21
When is a computer most likely to be used when using computational thinking?
When writing algorithms
When recognising patterns
During decomposition
At the end, when programming a computer
