Computational thinking (CT) is gaining increasing attention from researchers and practitioners all over the world to empower children in the digital era. However, there is no consensus on which components of CT to teach beginning coders in early childhood education (ECE). To address this issue, we conducted a systematic review of 42 empirical studies focused on teaching and assessing CT in ECE. We analyzed the included studies with the three-dimensional CT framework proposed by Brennan and Resnick (2012) and demonstrated how this framework could be modified to fit the context of ECE. Based on this systematic review, we sorted out the CT components that were proven suitable for young children to learn by incorporating emerging components and removing components inappropriate for young children. We thus proposed a CT curriculum framework for ECE that covers CT concepts (i.e., control flow/structures, representation, and hardware/software), CT practices (i.e., algorithmic design, pattern recognition, abstraction, debugging, decomposition, iteration, and generalizing), and CT perspectives (i.e., expressing and creating, connecting, perseverance, and choices of conduct). This systematic review and its associated CT curriculum framework provide important theoretical contributions and practical implications for early childhood CT education.

幼儿教育中的计算思维:回顾文献并重新开发三维框架

计算思维 (CT) 越来越受到全世界研究人员和从业者的关注,以增强数字时代儿童的能力。但是,对于在幼儿教育 (ECE) 中教授初级编码员的 CT 的哪些组成部分,目前还没有达成共识。为了解决这个问题,我们对 42 项实证研究进行了系统回顾,这些研究侧重于 ECE 中 CT 的教学和评估。我们使用 Brennan 和 Resnick (2012) 提出的三维 CT 框架分析了纳入的研究,并展示了如何修改该框架以适应 ECE 的背景。在此系统回顾的基础上,我们通过合并新出现的成分和去除不适合幼儿的成分,整理出适合幼儿学习的CT成分。因此,我们提出了 ECE 的 CT 课程框架,涵盖 CT 概念(即控制流/结构、表示和硬件/软件)、CT 实践(即算法设计、模式识别、抽象、调试、分解、迭代和概括) ) 和 CT 观点(即表达和创造、联系、毅力和行为选择)。本系统综述及其相关的 CT 课程框架为幼儿 CT 教育提供了重要的理论贡献和实践启示。和行为选择)。本系统综述及其相关的 CT 课程框架为幼儿 CT 教育提供了重要的理论贡献和实践启示。和行为选择)。本系统综述及其相关的 CT 课程框架为幼儿 CT 教育提供了重要的理论贡献和实践启示。
