Kristy A. Robinson; So Yeon Lee – Journal of Experimental Education, 2025
Students vary in their perceptions of teachers' motivational supports, even within the same classroom, but it is unclear why this is the case. To enable the design of equitable environments and understand the theoretical nature of motivational climate, this study explored demographic differences in university students' perceptions of instruction…

Zingaro, Daniel – ACM Transactions on Computing Education, 2015
Computer Science 1 (CS1), the first course taken by college-level computer science (CS) majors, has traditionally suffered from high failure rates. Efforts to understand this phenomenon have considered a wide range of predictors of CS success, such as prior programming experience, math ability, learning style, and gender, with findings that are…

Sykes, Edward R. – Technology, Instruction, Cognition and Learning, 2010
The Java Intelligent Tutoring System (JITS) research project explored the power of a new approach to supporting beginner Java programming students. Using Java's grammar as the core of its production rule base, JITS is embedded with extra functionality to detect, predict and correct lexicographical errors in students' code. This additional…

Zdunich, Louise – 1984
An evaluation is presented of two inservice courses on computer science designed to help teachers achieve computer literacy. Positive changes in teachers' attitudes toward computers were noted as well as gains in functional knowledge and computer literacy. There was little or no change in teachers' priorities for computer use, program expansion,…
