Roxana Draganoiu; Florica Moldoveanu; Anca Morar; Alin Moldoveanu – Interactive Learning Environments, 2024
Almost all educational systems still rely on traditional teaching methods: children must absorb huge uncorrelated amounts of information from various disciplines, multidisciplinary aspects are not developed, the fun factor is missing in most of the classes. Many children sometimes do not fully understand the presented theoretical concepts and…

Gao, Xuemin; Hew, Khe Foon – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2022
Computational thinking (CT) has attracted significant interest among many educators around the globe. Despite this growing interest, research on CT and programming education in elementary school remains at an initial stage. Many relevant studies have adopted only one type of method to assess students' CT, which may lead to an incomplete view of…
