Tóm tắt

Algorithmic thinking is the most “core” thinking that needs to be equipped for students when learning programming. To solve a programming problem, we need to define the problem. Thus, algorithmic thinking is a very important step in solving problems using programming. Meanwhile, the problem of calculating electricity prices is a problem that has the potential to train algorithmic thinking. Implicit in it is the knowledge that allows us to use branch statements, import and export data. Therefore, students will clearly understand each specific step of algorithmic thinking through this electricity price calculation problem. This article studies perspectives on algorithmic thinking, algorithmic flowcharts, processes as well as ways to organize teaching and training of algorithmic thinking in teaching Python programming to solve the problem of calculating electricity prices. This teaching process can also be applied to other similar problems such as the problem of calculating taxi prices, the problem of calculating body mass index (BMI), and the problem of calculating water prices.
