Gerard Dummer; Elwin Savelsbergh; Paul Drijvers – Informatics in Education, 2025
Programmed control systems are ubiquitous in the present-day world. In current educational practice, however, these systems are hardly being addressed, and little is known about children's spontaneous understandings about such systems. Therefore, we explored pupils' understandings prior to instruction in three concrete settings: a car park, an…

Kwon, Kyungbin; Ottenbreit-Leftwich, Anne T.; Brush, Thomas A.; Jeon, Minji; Yan, Ge – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2021
This study investigated how a computer science (CS) problem-based curriculum impacted elementary students' CS learning and attitudes. Four sixth-grade teachers and 200 of their students participated in the study. Researchers developed a CS curriculum in collaboration with the teachers, which consisted of two main units: (1) an introduction to…

Wong, Gary Ka-Wai; Cheung, Ho-Yin – Interactive Learning Environments, 2020
The role of programming in computing education for children has grown rapidly in recent years with the proliferation of specially designed programming tools, which is grounded on Seymour Papert's theoretical work in Constructionism. Studies show that some children can develop computational thinking skills and practices with programming activities…

Lewis, Colleen M. – Computer Science Education, 2011
This study investigates differences between collaboration methods in two summer enrichment classes for students entering the sixth grade. In one treatment, students used pair programming. In the other treatment, students engaged in frequent collaboration, but worked on their own computer. Students in the two treatments did not differ significantly…
