Prasad, Archana; Lal, P.; Wolde, B.; Zhu, M.; Samanthula, B. K.; Panorkou, N. – Journal of STEM Outreach, 2022
Out-of-classroom activities can help cultivate interest and literacy in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) subjects. To determine how a week-long out-of-classroom experience might impact STEM interest in adolescents, a free summer camp was offered to students entering grades 6-8. During this time, students participated in…

Kumar, Amruth N. – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2023
Is there a pattern in how students solve Parsons puzzles? Is there a difference between the puzzle-solving strategies of C++ and Java students? We used Markov transition matrix to answer these questions. We analyzed the solutions of introductory programming students solving Parsons puzzles involving if-else statements and while loops in C++ and…
