Data Structures and Organization Concepts

This video tutorial covers computational thinking, focusing on data structures. It explains the concept of data structures, both alphabetical and non-alphabetical, and their respective advantages and disadvantages. An individual activity challenges students to order letters to find a secret word. The video concludes with practice questions to reinforce learning.
