Zhong, Baichang; Xia, Liying; Su, Siyu – Education and Information Technologies, 2022
One of the aspects of programming that novices often struggle with is the understanding of abstract concepts, such as variables, loops, expressions, and especially Boolean operations. This paper aims to explore the effects of programming tools with different degrees of embodiment on learning Boolean operations in elementary school. To this end, 67…

Maruyama, Ryoga; Ogata, Shinpei; Kayama, Mizue; Tachi, Nobuyuki; Nagai, Takashi; Taguchi, Naomi – International Association for Development of the Information Society, 2022
This study aims to explore an educational learning environment that supports students to learn conceptual modelling with the unified modelling language (UML). In this study, we call the describing models "UML programming." In this paper, we show an educational UML programming environment for science, technology, engineering, art, and…

Lopez, Victor; Hernandez, Maria Isabel – Physics Education, 2015
The Scratch online authoring tool, which features a simple programming language that has been adapted to primary and secondary students, is being used more and more in schools as it offers students and teachers the opportunity to use a tool to build scientific models and evaluate their behaviour, just as can be done with computational modelling…

Pasko, Alexander; Adzhiev, Valery; Malikova, Evgeniya; Pilyugin, Victor – Journal of Information Technology Education: Innovations in Practice, 2013
Modern education technologies are destined to reflect the realities of a modern digital age. The juxtaposition of real and synthetic (computer-generated) worlds as well as a greater emphasis on visual dimension are especially important characteristics that have to be taken into account in learning and teaching. We describe the ways in which an…

Louca, Loucas T.; Zacharia, Zacharias C.; Michael, Michalis; Constantinou, Constantinos P. – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2011
The purpose of this study was to develop a framework for analyzing and evaluating student-constructed models of physical phenomena and monitoring the progress of these models. Moreover, we aimed to examine whether this framework could capture differences between models created using different computer-based modeling tools; namely, computer-based…

Sun, Koun-Tem; Lin, Ching-Ling; Wang, Sheng-Min – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2010
The relative positions of the sun, moon, and earth, their movements, and their relationships are abstract and difficult to understand astronomical concepts in elementary school science. This study proposes a three-dimensional (3-D) virtual reality (VR) model named the "Sun and Moon System." This e-learning resource was designed by…
