Exam Computational Thinking

Candidates for this exam decompose problems, collect and analyze data, recognize patterns in data, represent data through abstractions, and automate solutions by using algorithmic thinking.

Candidates for this certification understand how to employ strategies for understanding and solving
problems in ways that leverage the power of computing principles to develop solutions. Candidates know
how to decompose problems, collect and analyze data, recognize patterns in data, represent data through abstractions, and automate solutions by using algorithmic thinking. Candidates know how to collaborate with others and also how to create computational artifacts to communicate the problem and its solution to others. Candidates have at least 150 hours of instruction and/or practical experience analyzing, collaborating on, and solving problems using computing principles like decomposition, pattern recognition, sequencing, conditional logic, and iteration. This exam is mapped to the International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE) for alignment with the ISTE Computational Thinker Standard for Students (Standards 5A, 5B, 5C, and 5D). After each objective title below, the ISTE standard or standards to which the items for this objective could potentially map is indicated in parentheses.

To be successful on the test, the candidate is also expected to have the following prerequisite knowledge
