First Graders Coordination of Counting and Movements on a Grid When Programming with Tangible Blocks
Abigail Erskine; Laura Bofferding; Sezai Kocabos; Haoran Tang – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2023
As elementary students begin to program using tangible blocks, they must coordinate their use of counting with the movements, directions, and numbers they use to move a character. In our study, we analyzed 13 first graders' first attempts at coordinating these elements when playing a programming game on the iPad that used tangible programming…

Yun-An Chen; Fu-Pei Hsieh; Chun-Yen Tsai – Educational Technology & Society, 2024
An intervention using the unplugged programming and storytelling (UPS) strategy was implemented in this study to cultivate students' programming learning motivation and concepts. The participants were 49 second graders at a primary school in southern Taiwan. The course was conducted for 12 lessons (40 min each lesson). A quasi-experimental design…

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…
