- Abstract
The important role of Computational Thinking in the learning process has encouraged many studies that use this concept as a key variable. The aim of this research is to analyze publication trends as well as the novelty of keywords related to Computational Thinking. Using software such as RStudio and VOSviewer, analysis was carried out on 243 documents collected from Scopus based on relevant keywords. From the analysis results, it can be concluded that there were only 31 articles published on the topic of Computational Thinking in Schools between 2008 and 2016, but that number more than sevenfold increased to 209 publications between 2017 and 2022. Lecture Notes in Computer Science (Including Subseries Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence and Lecture Notes in Bioinformatics) (SJR 2022 = 0.32) is the source with the highest h-index. English (2017) research on STEM education in elementary and middle schools is the most influential based on number of citations. From the results interpreted with VOSviewer, there are seven color clusters for Computational Thinking research with various research focuses. By looking at the overlay visualization, research on early childhood education has not directly involved other variables such as integration, systematic review, motivation, and relationships. Thus, this is a gap that can enable researchers in this field to carry out further research.
