Abstract: | As computational tools are becoming increasingly common in scientific practice, developing students’ computational thinking for science (CT-S) skills is a priority in science education. To support educators in meeting this need, we present a theoretical construct that distinguishes between science activities that engage students in CT-S through interactions with computational tools and science activities in which students use computational tools but do not engage in CT-S. We discuss how this theoretical construct can support educators in developing or modifying science learning experiences to promote CT-S. |
