Abstract
<p>In each country, skills development in the 21<sup>st</sup> century plays a crucial role in education at all levels. One of these skills is computational thinking (CT), which is the ability to systematically think and solve problems in daily life. This research aims to ascertain the benefits of using a mobile cloud-based learning system with a peer-to-peer reverse engineering approach in enhancing CT skill. In this study, a cloud-based learning system and learning management plans were employed as research instruments, and a CT test was used as a data gathering instrument. The data were analyzed using the mean and standard deviation, repeated-measures analysis of variance (ANOVA), and t-test. The findings suggested that the students’ scores were higher after using the cloud-based learning system, at a 0.05 level of significance. After performing the repeated-measures ANOVA, the students’ scores were significantly higher at a 0.05 level in each round of the CT test. At the same time, peer learning increased the positive attitude of the learners toward the system and promoted the effectiveness of working in a team. This study provides a better understanding of the current research trends in the field of CT education, the perception of students, and the learning strategies and technology involved in CT education.</p>

Summary
Computer technology and communication have been developed and employed as tools for accelerating work, education, and learning. The educational authorities of each country throughout the world have realized that developing learners’ skills, which allows them to obtain quality of life in the 21st century, is essential. Twenty-first-century learning skills are essential for living in a world of technology, economy, and trade. As technology facilitates human lives, connects people, and allows them to access news and information anywhere and anytime, human technological skills should be strengthened so that they can learn and smartly adapt themselves. When these skills are strengthened, people become well informed and can obtain leadership. In this study, learning and innovation skills for CT were investigated [28], [29]
