Observational analysis reveals significant correlations between computational thinking skills and test performance in secondary students, highlighting their role in academic success.
This research investigates the correlation between students' Computational Thinking Skills (CTS) and their performance on the Computational Thinking Test (CTT) in the context of 21st-century education, aiming to align the Malaysian education system with global standards. Emphasizing creativity, critical thinking, and problem-solving, the study, conducted with Form 3 (15 years old) students at a local public secondary school, reveals significant correlations between CTT outcomes and CTS. Despite limitations, the findings underscore the importance of computational thinking skills in academic success, advocating for educational shifts to cultivate these skills for students' meaningful contributions to Malaysia's global development.
