Short Activity: Using Computational Thinking to Foster Deeper Understanding of Mathematical Concepts
Ben Zunica
Australian Mathematics Education Journal, v5 n2 p46-48 2023
Ben Zunica describes a lesson in which computational thinking has been successful in assisting students to understand the process of simplifying surds. The strengths and limitations of this approach are discussed. The author concludes that computational thinking can assist in solidifying understanding of a range of mathematical processes for students.
