Why is it important?
In this study, we adopted co-design as a teaching method for teaching computational thinking because the co-design teaching method is not common in the Nigerian context as well the teaching and learning of computational thinking is not part of the subject taught in Nigeria's K-12 education.
Perspectives
This study promotes and advocates for the application of co-design pedagogy to foster the teaching and learning of CT in a Nigerian context. This study contributes to knowledge by promoting the use of Scratch as a tool for co-designing in learning CT, proposing a four-phase co-design application flow for the integration of co-design pedagogy with Scratch for learning CT in the Nigerian K-12 context and suggesting ways to implement the teaching and learning of CT in K-12 education.
