Computational thinking is acknowledged as an essential competency for everyone to learn. However, teachers find it challenging to implement the existing learning approaches in K-12 settings because the existing approaches often focus on teaching computing concepts and skills (i.e., programming skills) rather than on helping students develop their…

Yeo, Jun-Hui; Cho, I.-Hsuan; Hwang, Gwo-Haur; Yang, Hsi-Hsun – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2022
Gender and prior knowledge may affect students' performance and motivation when simulations and games are used for learning. Accommodations should be made for students of different genders and with different levels of prior knowledge. A simulation digital game about the food chain concept geared for elementary school students was developed for…

Kim, Yoon Jeon; Knowles, Mariah A.; Scianna, Jennifer; Lin, Grace; Ruipérez-Valiente, José A. – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2023
Game-based assessment (GBA), a specific application of games for learning, has been recognized as an alternative form of assessment. While there is a substantive body of literature that supports the educational benefits of GBA, limited work investigates the validity and generalizability of such systems. In this paper, we describe applications of…

Kinkopf, Dara; Dack, Hilary – RMLE Online: Research in Middle Level Education, 2023
A gender gap persists in the fields of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). Although females constitute half the total workforce in the United States, they make up just greater than a quarter of employees in STEM fields. In recent years, one approach to addressing the gender gap in STEM has involved middle grades science…
