Students' In-Moment Challenges and Developing Maker Perspectives during Problem-Based Digital Making
Peer reviewed
Direct linkNg, Oi-Lam; Liu, Minnie; Cui, Zhihao – Journal of Research on Technology in Education, 2023
We report on a case study of eight grade 5 to 6 students (ages 12-14) involved in a three-day "digital-making summer camp" focused on mathematical problem-solving through block-based programming combined with programmable electronics. Data analysis focused on the computational thinking (CT), mathematics, and problem-solving challenges…

Cui, Zhihao; Ng, Oi-Lam – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2021
In this paper, we explore the challenges experienced by a group of Primary 5 to 6 (age 12-14) students as they engaged in a series of problem-solving tasks through block-based programming. The challenges were analysed according to a taxonomy focusing on the presence of computational thinking (CT) elements in mathematics contexts: preparing…

Ng, Oi-Lam; Cui, Zhihao – ZDM: Mathematics Education, 2021
This paper reports on a design-based study within the context of a 3-day "digital making" (DM) summer camp attended by a group of students (aged 11-13) in grades 5 and 6. During the camp, students were presented with a set of mathematical problems to solve in a block-based programming environment, which was connected to various physical…

The activities of the students during the summer holidays, learning losses or the forgetfulness of the return of the holidays have been discussed in the educational sciences for a long time. However, very little research is being done and has little place in educational policies. This is especially important in applications and continuity courses…

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…

Newton, Kristie J.; Leonard, Jacqueline; Buss, Alan; Wright, Christopher G.; Barnes-Johnson, Joy – Journal of Research on Technology in Education, 2020
This mixed methods study examined how engagement in robotics and game design influenced students' self-efficacy, STEM attitudes, and computational thinking (CT) skills. Predominantly African-American students engaged in engineering and computer science tasks during informal learning environments. Results revealed students' self-efficacy scores on…
