Direct linkXinlei Li; Guoyuan Sang; Martin Valcke; Johan van Braak – Education and Information Technologies, 2024
Computational thinking (CT) is valued as a thinking process that is required to adapt to the development of curriculum in primary education. In the context of modern information technology, English as a language subject emphasizes the necessity for changes in both learning and teaching modes. However, there is a lack of up-to-date synthesis…

Holloman, Teirra K.; Lee, Walter C.; London, Jeremi S.; Hawkins Ash, Chaneé D.; Watford, Bevlee A. – Journal of Engineering Education, 2021
Background: In the field of engineering education, assessment and evaluation have been given insufficient attention as they relate to broadening participation. We posit that this lack of attention negatively impacts our ability to develop and implement sustainable solutions at scale. Purpose: The purpose of this article is to explore the presence…

Ezeamuzie, Ndudi O.; Leung, Jessica S. C.; Ting, Fridolin S. T. – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2022
Although abstraction is widely understood to be one of the primary components of computational thinking, the roots of abstraction may be traced back to different fields. Hence, the meaning of abstraction in the context of computational thinking is often confounded, as researchers interpret abstraction through diverse lenses. To disentangle these…
