Direct linkStephanie Yang; Miles Baird; Eleanor O’Rourke; Karen Brennan; Bertrand Schneider – ACM Transactions on Computing Education, 2024
Students learning computer science frequently struggle with debugging errors in their code. These struggles can have significant downstream effects--negatively influencing how students assess their programming ability and contributing to their decision to drop out of CS courses. However, debugging instruction is often an overlooked topic, and…

Chen Sun; Stephanie Yang; Betsy Becker – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2024
Computational thinking (CT), an essential 21st century skill, incorporates key computer science concepts such as abstraction, algorithms, and debugging. Debugging is particularly underrepresented in the CT training literature. This multi-level meta-analysis focused on debugging as a core CT skill, and investigated the effects of various debugging…
