• Computational thinking in compulsory education: Towards an agenda for research and practice (2015, background): “The idea of abstraction and students’ ability to deal with different levels of abstractions, as well as to think algorithmically and to understand the consequences of scale (big data), are fundamental to CT (Denning 2009; Lu and Fletscher 2009).”
• Research Perspectives: The Anatomy of a Design Principle (2020, background): “An exception is Denning and Martell (2015), who refer to the design principle’s use by human designers/implementers to aid understanding (Table 1).”
