Computational Thinking in Mathematical Modeling Projects. A Case Study with Future Mathematics Teachers
Computational thinking has been a topic of debate in research in different STEM areas. This type of thinking is considered one of the vital skill sets for societies’ technological and scientific development. With Carmona-Mesa, Quiroz-Vallejo, Castrillon-Yepes and Farsani inquiry the computational thinking skills embedded in a mathematical modeling projects (mmp). A mmp was developed by three future math teachers who participated in a mathematical modeling course. We analyzed students’ documents, videos, and materials made it possible to identify actions associated with decomposition, abstraction, algorithms, representation/modeling, and generalization. The components of computational thinking observed in this study show the opportunities that … Continúa leyendo Computational Thinking in Mathematical Modeling Projects.
