Ilbilge Dökme; Zümrüt Sengüler Hancioglu – Education and Information Technologies, 2025
The electricity-related topics in the secondary school science curriculum are near-universal standards across countries. We prepared a three-stage robotic STEM program incorporating coding, robotic integrated science (in the topic of electricity), STEM engineering processes, and their educational structures. We investigated the impact of the…

Writing as a Design Discipline: Exploring the Relationship between Composition and Programming.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Walton, Richard E.; Balestri, Diane – Machine-Mediated Learning, 1987
Examines similarities between composition and programming processes, and reviews two studies that linked instruction in computer programming and freshman composition to help students understand writing as a design discipline. Projects at the University of Montana and Bryn Mawr College which improved students' writing abilities are described. (LRW)
