Abstract

The importance of mathematical problem-solving skills shows that it is very important to develop it as an integrated part of the learning mathematics process. However, some prior research results show that students' problem-solving skills is still relatively low, especially for slow learners. The students as slow learners require external stimulation or encouragement to help them to simplify complex problems into simple ones. One of the stimulations or encouragements is a computational thinking
technique. The computational thinking technique in this research includes four principles namely decomposition, abstraction, pattern recognition, and algorithms. This research aims to determine the use of computational thinking for slow learners in solving problems related to arithmetic sequences. The method used in this research is single-subject research having two students as research subjects in one group. The data collection techniques include observation and students’ test results and the data analysis techniques used are within-conditions analysis and betweenconditions analysis with an A-B research design. The A-B research design is one of the designs in the Single Subject Research (SSR) method, with A as the baseline phase and B as the intervention phase. The results show that in the baseline phase, the students receive a final score in the range of 20 to 30, and in the intervention phase, after being given a computational thinking technique as a treatment, students' final scores increase to the range of 50 to 60. This shows that there is a positive effect of using computational thinking techniques for slow learners in solving arithmetic sequence problems
