Wahid Yunianto; Guillermo Bautista Jr.; Bungkus Dias Prasetyo; Zsolt Lavicza – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2024
As computational thinking (CT) is new to teachers, they need support on how CT integration will work. This study examines the use of a hypothetical learning trajectory (HLT) to support teachers in integrating computational thinking into mathematics lessons utilizing GeoGebra. By employing the educational design research (EDR) methodology, the…

Yifan Zhang – ProQuest LLC, 2024
Computational thinking (CT) has been an increasing focus of research and practice since the seminal paper by Wing in 2006, especially in pre-college (K-12) education. Barr and Stephenson defined CT as a problem-solving methodology that can be automated, transferred, and applied across disciplines. With the challenges of fitting CT into already…
