Abstract

This communication reports on interventions in collaboration with a mathematics teacher aimed at developing and implementing teaching materials that introduce students to problem-solving tasks that integrate computational thinking (CT) and mathematics. Drawing on classroom observations, we seek to characterize the notion of CT-driven problem handling in the mathematics classroom. In this intersection, problem handling or solving has a prominent place, though its meaning may not be the same. We delineate three abilities in this characterization: to solve computational and mathematical problems through effective modeling, to pose own real-life inquiries as computational
and mathematical problems, and to judge which elements of the solution strategies can be
transferable.
