Literature Analysis and Research Prospects of Computational Thinking Education in Primary and Secondary Schools in China from the Perspective of STEAM

Abstract

STEAM education is widely valued as a model of interdisciplinary learning mode, and computational thinking is selected as one of the top ten technologies that will have a profound impact on education in the next three to five years. This paper follows the research hotspots, categorizes the literature on developing computational thinking under the STEAM concept retrieved from the Chinese database of China Knowledge Network, analyzes and summarizes the value and problems of the existing literature, and finally provides an outlook on the research on developing computational thinking from the perspective of STEAM education.
