Luo, Feiya; Ijeluola, Stephen Abiodun; Westerlund, Jill; Walker, Amanda; Denham, André; Walker, John; Young, Cherelle – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2023
As more states in the USA require elementary schools to offer computer science (CS) education, teachers are expected to master the knowledge and skills to teach CS by integrating computational thinking (CT) into content areas. This study presented a research-practice partnership approach to support elementary teachers in a local school district…

While increasing emphasis has been placed on computer science (CS) and computational thinking (CT) little is known about these topics in elementary classrooms. Significant equity gaps exist within CS/CT at the elementary level, with a major contributor being the lack of highly qualified CS/CT elementary teachers. Professional development (PD) for…

EdTech Leaders' Beliefs: How Are K-5 Teachers Supported with the Integration of Computer Science in K-5 Classrooms?
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Howard, Nicol R. – Technology, Knowledge and Learning, 2019
Educational Technology Leaders' support of computer science teachers in K-5 classrooms are influenced by their beliefs about school-based program implementation criteria, available district-level support, and state mandates on the integration of computer science. The researcher in this study examines the beliefs about Computer Science teacher…

Thomas, Debra Kelly; Milenkovic, Lisa; Marousky, Annamargareth – Science and Children, 2019
Computer science (CS) and computational thinking (a problem-solving process used by computer scientists) teach students design, logical reasoning, and problem solving--skills that are valuable in life and in any career. Computational thinking (CT) concepts such as decomposition teach students how to break down and tackle a large complex problem.…
