Abstract

This study aims to map the landscape of the importance of previous research on computational thinking (CT) in mathematics learning over the last decade. This research is a literature review research, there are 113 publications collected from the Scopus database which are then analyzed using the bibliometric analysis method assisted by the Vosviewer application. The data taken from the Scopus database was refined so that it became 113 publications. The results of the study show that publications are spread across various continents, including America, Asia, Africa, and Europe. The United States and the United Kingdom are the most influential countries and have high cooperation with other countries in this field. The main conclusion from this study is that computational thinking has an important role in learning mathematics and STEM. The integration of computational thinking in the mathematics curriculum can improve students' understanding of mathematics and help them face the challenges of the digital age. In addition, the development of effective training methods for mathematics teachers as well as the assessment of good computational thinking learning tools and platforms can help improve the effectiveness of computational thinking teaching in mathematics contexts. These innovations will help better understand how computational thinking can be effectively integrated in mathematics learning and prepare students for a future filled with digital technologies.
