Abstract

In technology-rich mathematics education, teachers nowadays experience the challenge to foster both mathematical thinking and computational thinking. To address this issue, the main research question is: How can a teaching-learning strategy, focusing on the use of digital tools, support 16-17 years old pre-university students in developing computational thinking skills related to mathematical thinking in pure and applied mathematics courses?
