Aoife Hennessy; Kieran Murphy – Irish Educational Studies, 2025
The importance of student engagement is long recognised. Students who are more engaged will be more motivated and inclined to complete their studies. The aim of this study is to understand barriers to engagement for first-year computing students, a cohort that traditionally have high non-progression rates. A qualitative descriptive design was…

Dan Sun; Fan Xu – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2025
Real-time collaborative programming (RCP), which allows multiple programmers to work concurrently on the same codebase with changes instantly visible to all participants, has garnered considerable popularity in higher education. Despite this trend, little work has rigorously examined how undergraduates engage in collaborative programming when…

Gerit Wagner; Laureen Thurner – Journal of Information Systems Education, 2025
Git, as the leading version-control system, is frequently employed by software developers, digital product managers, and knowledge workers. Information systems (IS) students aspiring to fill software engineering, management, or research positions would therefore benefit from familiarity with Git. However, teaching Git effectively can be…

Mark Frydenberg; Anqi Xu; Jennifer Xu – Information Systems Education Journal, 2025
This study explores student perceptions of learning to code by evaluating AI-generated Python code. In an experimental exercise given to students in an introductory Python course at a business university, students wrote their own solutions to a Python program and then compared their solutions with AI-generated code. They evaluated both solutions…

There can be many reasons why students fail to answer correctly to summative tests in advanced computer science courses: often the cause is a lack of prerequisites or misconceptions about topics presented in previous courses. One of the ITiCSE 2020 working groups investigated the possibility of designing assessments suitable for differentiating…

Tri Puspa Rinjeni; Nur Aini Rakhmawati; Reny Nadlifatin – Journal of Information Technology Education: Research, 2024
Aim/Purpose: This study identifies gamification element preferences based on Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) characteristics. It measures the influence of preferences on learning motivation through a pre-experimental design of one group pre-test post-test. Background: Incorporating information technology in education has led to the introduction…

Jeff Hanson; Blair Taylor; Siddharth Kaza – Information Systems Education Journal, 2025
Cybersecurity content is typically taught and assessed using Bloom's Taxonomy to ensure that students acquire foundational and higher-order knowledge. In this study we show that when students are given the objectives written in the form of a competency-based statements, students have a more clearly defined outcome and are be able to exhibit their…

Kim, J. B.; Zhong, Chen; Liu, Hong – Journal of Information Systems Education, 2023
Cybersecurity education is becoming increasingly important in modern society, and hands-on practice is an essential element. Although instructors provide hands-on labs in their cybersecurity courses, traditional lab exercises often fail to effectively motivate students. Hence, many instructors desire to incorporate gamification in hands-on…

Ella Christiaans; So Yeon Lee; Kristy A. Robinson – Educational Psychology, 2024
Students want to learn computer science due to its usefulness for future careers, however they often meet challenges in introductory courses. In the increasingly digital world, it is important to understand some important psychological consequences of such challenges: perceived costs of pursuing computer science. This study thus investigated…
