von Wangenheim, Aldo; von Wangenheim, Christiane Gresse; Pacheco, Fernando S.; Hauck, Jean C. R.; Ferreira, Miriam Nathalie F. – International Journal of Computer Science Education in Schools, 2017
Computing education in schools faces several problems, such as a lack of computing teachers and time in an already overloaded curriculum. A solution can be a multidisciplinary approach, integrating the teaching of computing within other subjects, creating the need to motivate teachers from other disciplines to teach computing in middle school.…
