Meghan M. Parkinson; Seppe Hermans; David Gijbels; Daniel L. Dinsmore – Computer Science Education, 2024
Background and Context: More data are needed about how young learners identify and fix errors while programming in pairs. Objective: The study will identify discernible patterns in the intersection between debugging processes and the type of regulation used during debugging while children engage in coding to drive further theory and model…

Mehmet Ceylan; Durmus Aslan – Education and Information Technologies, 2024
This study was conducted to investigate the effects of learning trajectories-based coding (LTs) and LTs-based program on preschoolers' length, area, volume, and angle measurement skills. A quasi-experimental research design was utilized with a quantitative approach. The study's participants were 47 children between the ages of 55-71 months who…

Peter J. Rich; Scott Bartholomew; David Daniel; Kenzie Dinsmoor; Meagan Nielsen; Connor Reynolds; Meg Swanson; Ellyse Winward; Jessica Yauney – Journal of Research on Technology in Education, 2024
In this study, we attempted to curate a list of tools whose primary intent is to enable and teach children to code. From this list, we developed a framework for the classification of coding tools and reviewed current research to determine how tools are used to teach coding in elementary education. The catalog grew to over 300 specific tools…

Sümeyra Akkaya; Anil Erkan – International Journal of Contemporary Educational Research, 2025
Coding means writing down the steps to be followed in order to carry out any operation through computers, using commands step by step. In other words, it is the job of finding a solution to an existing problem by using the language that the computer understands. Thanks to coding education, students are provided with skills such as research,…

Monika Mladenovic; Žana Žanko; Goran Zaharija – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2024
The use of a pedagogical approach mediated transfer with the bridging method has been successful in facilitating the transitions from block-based to text-based programming languages. Nevertheless, there is a lack of research addressing the impact of this transfer on programming misconceptions during the transition. The way programming concepts are…

Steven Floyd – Canadian Journal of Science, Mathematics and Technology Education, 2023
In this article, the relatively new phenomenon of integrating coding and computer science (CS) related concepts and skills into the K-8 grades is analysed through a comparative analysis of related provincial curriculum initiatives in Canada. First, provincial K-8 curricula that include coding and CS related concepts and skills are identified, as…

Spencer, Deborah; Mark, June; Reed, Kristen; Goldenberg, Paul; Coleman, Kate; Chiappinelli, Kathryn; Kolar, Zachary – Mathematics Teacher: Learning and Teaching PK-12, 2023
As computer-science-for-all initiatives continue to grow, many schools are looking for ways to introduce computer science skills and thinking to elementary-age children. Some initiatives have focused on coding as its own endeavor, not integrated with other subjects like mathematics, science, or literacy. Increasingly, developers and researchers…

Woo, Karen; Falloon, Garry – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2023
Coding is increasingly popular in schools around the world and is often taught by non-specialist teachers as an integrated task with other subject areas. In this article, we explore the relationship between computer science (CS) concepts and students' multimodal expression in a coding animated narrative (CAN) task in the context of an integrated…

Zdawczyk, Christina; Varma, Keisha – Computer Science Education, 2023
Background and Context: A continued gender disparity has driven a need for effective interventions for recruiting girls to computer science. Prior research has demonstrated that middle school girls hold beliefs and attitudes that keep them from learning computer science, which can be mitigated through classroom design. Objective: This study…

Dandan Yang; Zhanxia Yang; Marina Umaschi Bers – Computer Science Education, 2025
Background and context: Despite the growing importance of computer science (CS) education, high-quality CS curricula for students in kindergarten to lower elementary grades are lacking. It is also unclear how students from underrepresented groups such as female students, students from low socioeconomic status, and students with disability respond…

Govind, Madhu – ProQuest LLC, 2022
In recent years there has been an increased push for K-12 computer science education. A major reason for this push is the growing evidence that introducing young children to coding can enhance their interest and promote their learning of foundational skills needed to thrive in today's technologically rich world. However, little research has…

Meghan L. McSherry; Becca A. Leininger; Maria L. Johnson; AnnMarie P. Thomas; Susan Outlaw; Douglas C. Orzolek – Journal of Science Education for Students with Disabilities, 2024
The purpose of this research project was to design, deliver, and informally assess the content and methodology of an introductory online course for the educators of Deaf and Hard of Hearing students (N=20) that focused on the block-based coding language, Scratch. Prior work by The Playful Learning Lab examined various STEM resources and their…
