Schmid, Rahel; Robin, Nicolas; Smit, Robbert; Strahl, Alexander – European Journal of STEM Education, 2022
Secondary school students often lack the necessary motivation to program visually. The present study aims to analyse the effects of error learning orientation on students' intrinsic motivation for visual programming. According to the control-value theory of Pekrun (2006), we posit that the influence of error learning orientation on intrinsic…

Michailidis, Nikolaos; Kapravelos, Efstasthios; Tsiatsos, Thrasyvoulos – Interactive Learning Environments, 2022
Students' skilful use of self-regulatory learning strategies is becoming fundamental to the advent of blog-based learning. Moreover, the use of Interaction Analysis (IA) in studying the learning dynamics in Computer-Supported Collaborative Learning (CSCL) activities is on the increase, particularly aiming to support participants by means of IA…

Fung, Tze-ho; Li, Wing-yi – Practical Assessment, Research & Evaluation, 2022
Rough set theory (RST) was proposed by Zdzistaw Pawlak (Pawlak,1982) as a methodology for data analysis using the notion of discernibility of objects based on their attribute values. The main advantage of using RST approach is that it does not need additional assumptions--like data distribution in statistical analysis. Besides, it provides…

Ray, Beverly B.; Rogers, Reenay R. H.; Hocutt, Martha M. – Journal of Digital Learning in Teacher Education, 2020
Research explored the change in perspectives of K-12 non-STEM discipline teachers regarding coding as an instructional tool. Whether, and to what extent, participants (n = 35) are willing to embrace coding as a teaching and learning strategy was examined. Findings suggest that participants' perspectives improved as a result of their participation…

Wu, Ting-Ting; Chen, Jian-Ming – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2022
Many countries have incorporated computational thinking (CT) and programming languages into their science and technology courses. Students can improve their CT ability by learning programming languages. Moreover, situated learning enables students to generate knowledge and master problem-solving skills through interaction with situations. This…

Breed, Betty; Mentz, Elsa; van der Westhuizen, Gert – Electronic Journal of Research in Educational Psychology, 2014
Introduction: The research focused on metacognition in a collaborative learning setting. Based on a comprehensive literature study the researchers designed a metacognitive teaching-learning strategy for pair programmers. Our purpose was to investigate the influence of this metacognitive teaching-learning strategy during pair programming in an…

Wang, Li-Chun; Chen, Ming-Puu – Innovations in Education and Teaching International, 2010
Learning to program is difficult for novices, even for those undergraduates who have majored in computer science. The study described in this paper has investigated the effects of game strategy and preference-matching on novice learners' flow experience and performance in learning to program using an experiential gaming activity. One hundred and…
