and promotes the integration of engineering and computational thinking [24],[25]. However, the field lacks specific tools to translate these aspirations to educational practices.A decade since the publication of the NGSS, exemplary engineering activities have yet to beidentified and published [26].Here, we propose a framework for explicitly connecting computational thinking practices withengineering design. We consider the three main phases of CT - problem decomposition,abstraction, and algorithmic thinking - and how these map to problem definition, needs finding,and solution generation in engineering design. With these analogs in mind we have developed acrosscutting framework that links NGSS goals with scientific inquiry, CT, and
