Ünal Çakiroglu; Seval Bilgi – Interactive Learning Environments, 2024
The aim of this explanatory study is to identify the causes of intrinsic cognitive load in programming process. For this purpose, a method based on two dimensions; programming knowledge types (syntactic, semantic, and strategic) and programming constructs was proposed. The proposed method was tested with high school students enrolled in Computer…

Pan, Zexuan; Cui, Ying; Leighton, Jacqueline P.; Cutumisu, Maria – Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2023
This systematic review examines 35 empirical studies featuring the use of think-aloud interviews in computational thinking (CT) research. Findings show that think-aloud interviews (1) are typically conducted in Computer Science classrooms and with K-12 students; (2) are usually combined with other exploratory CT assessment tools; (3) have the…

Hao-Yue Jin; Maria Cutumisu – Education and Information Technologies, 2024
Computational thinking (CT) is considered to be a critical problem-solving toolkit in the development of every student in the digital twenty-first century. Thus, it is believed that the integration of deeper learning in CT education is an approach to help students transfer their CT skills beyond the classroom. Few literature reviews have mapped…

Dongkuk Lee; Hyuksoo Kwon – Education and Information Technologies, 2024
This study aimed to integrate the results of prior studies on the effectiveness of AI education in K-12 Korean classrooms to draw systematic and comprehensive conclusions. To achieve this goal, a review of 64 studies on AI education in Korea that were conducted from 2019 to 2023 was subjected to a meta-analysis. The total effect size of AI…

Sparf, Maria – Designs for Learning, 2021
Within a theoretical framework grounded in design for learning, this article presents a research project about pupils' engagement during programming education. In a design-theoretical perspective, everyone who is somehow engaged in a learning process is a designer. The results show that how pupils design their learning when programming is related…

Dahn, Maggie; DeLiema, David – Computer Science Education, 2020
Background and Context: Women are underrepresented in the field of computer science, a trend that in part can be traced to girls' early experiences with the discipline. Objective: Our aim is to show how three girls who became strong coders talked about their debugging practice at the intersection of problem solving, emotion, and identity. Method:…

Sanford, John F.; Naidu, Jaideep T. – Contemporary Issues in Education Research, 2017
The paper argues that mathematical modeling is the essence of computational thinking. Learning a computer language is a valuable assistance in learning logical thinking but of less assistance when learning problem-solving skills. The paper is third in a series and presents some examples of mathematical modeling using spreadsheets at an advanced…

Pellas, Nikolaos – Interactive Learning Environments, 2017
The combination of Open Sim and Scratch4OS can be a worthwhile innovation for introductory programming courses, using a Community of Inquiry (CoI) model as a theoretical instructional design framework. This empirical study had a threefold purpose to present: (a) an instructional design framework for the beneficial formalization of a virtual…

Dubuclet, Keisha Smith; Lou, Yiping; MacGregor, Kim – American Journal of Distance Education, 2015
This study investigated the impact of discussion forum design and facilitative strategies on student participation and cognitive levels of student dialogue. A multiple-case study design was used. Three online classes taught by the same instructor participated (n = 55). Data were collected from observations, discussion transcripts, and teacher…
