This is concerning since few (if any) of the definitionsfor computational thinking mention anything vaguely sociopolitical, such as ethics, social justice,cultural competency [7], or global competency [8].1 Even though computational thinkers areexpected to shift between varying levels of abstraction [10], the omissions imply thatsociopolitical concerns are auxiliary to thinking computationally and, potentially, to being acomputer scientist. If computational thinking is as central to computing pedagogy as researcherssuggest, then there should be concern that the assimilation of students into

Epistemological openness allows a researcher tocapture the thought process behind the various actions of an engineer. 2) The second attribute isthe micro to macro focus which informs the need for an engineer to consider the systems-levelimplications of their action along with the individual level implications. 3) The reflective valueawareness attribute covers the need for ethical and professional impact of an engineer’s action.The ability to reflect on their own values and improve
