Abstract

The fourth industrial revolution is already changing what we mean by mathematical reasoning in its different forms, such as algebraic, spatial and geometric, and statistical. Algorithmic thinking is one particular form of mathematical reasoning, emphasizing decomposition (breaking a complex problem down into component sub-problems and sub-tasks), pattern recognition, generalization and abstraction. With a growing global emphasis on using algorithmic thinking in coding and computing programs in schools, it is necessary to examine how algorithmic thinking should be included more explicitly in the teaching and learning of mathematics.
