Abstract: Computational Thinking attracts domestic and international attention. Many countries or regions start training Computational Thinking. But the training tools and means are very different, and the effect is often difficult to measure. The paper sorts out the relevant achievements of the international community from the aspects such as the connotation, dimension, hierarchy, training method, evaluation means, criticism and challenge of Computational Thinking, and evaluates them comprehensively. It thinks that, at present, the international society has not reached a consensus on the connotation, the law of development, the training tool, the evaluation standard of Computational Thinking. The training for Computational Thinking faces with a lot of gamble. It is not the time to train Computational Thinking on a large scale, and the relevant research is urgently needed. The training must avoid subjectivity and enhance pertinence.
