Gamze Kurt; Özge Çakioglu – Digital Experiences in Mathematics Education, 2024
This study aims to investigate students' computational thinking (CT) through mathematical tasks integrated with programming in Scratch. Participants completed four tasks that required students to solve coding problems, which were focused on prime numbers and the prime factorization algorithm. The study was designed as a case study and the unit of…

Dickson, Brandon A.; Kotsopoulos, Donna; Harris, Lauren – Digital Experiences in Mathematics Education, 2022
In this research, we explore the potential for computational thinking (CT) to benefit the spatial reasoning abilities of thirty-three middle-school students (aged 11-13) in grades 6 and 7. There is an increasing focus on the explicit development of spatial reasoning throughout the mathematics curriculum, such as geometry, as students' success in…

Kynigos, Chronis; Karavakou, Myrto – Digital Experiences in Mathematics Education, 2023
We investigate three 8th-grade students' mathematical meanings developed in the context of using linked representations to generate animations of figural models tuned in musical rhythm in "MaLT2," a programmable Turtle Geometry in 3D resource affording dynamic manipulation of variable values. We adopted a modified version of the UDGS…
