Abstrakt: Integrating CT into the classroom The same skills we hope to instill in our secondary science students (problemsolving, creativity, and risk-taking) are endemic to informal learning spaces, but the traditional classroom often emphasizes structure and defined paths to success. The role of CT in the science classroom As teachers, can we identify problems where CT skills should be used? In this big data world, CT is indeed an essential scientific practice for the next generation and a skill that deserves attention in today's secondary science classroom. We may think that the act of students collecting numerical data and constructing graphs and tables demonstrates Mathematics and Computational Thinking (CT) in science, but we would be wrong.
