A framework for supporting systems thinking and computational thinking through constructing models

Abstract We face complex global issues such as climate change that challenge our ability humans to manage them. Models have been used a pivotal science and engineering tool investigate, represent, explain, predict phenomena or solve problems involve multi-faceted systems across many fields. To fully explain using models requires both thinking (ST) computational (CT). This study proposes theoretical framework uses modeling way integrate ST CT. developed guide the process of developing curriculum, learning tools, support strategies, assessments for engaging learners in CT context modeling. The includes essential aspects based on selected literature, illustrates how each practice draws upon explaining solving problems. use show these are manifested
