Teaching Algorithms in Upper Secondary Education: A Study of Teachers' Pedagogical Content Knowledge
Nijenhuis-Voogt, Jacqueline; Bayram-Jacobs, Durdane; Meijer, Paulien C.; Barendsen, Erik – Computer Science Education, 2023
Background and Context: Computing education is expanding, while the teaching of algorithms is less well studied. Objective: The aim of this study was to examine teachers' pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) for teaching algorithms. Method: We conducted semi-structured interviews with seven computer science (CS) teachers in upper secondary…

Huo, Rongrong – European Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2023
In our investigation of university students' knowledge about real numbers in relation to computer algebra systems (CAS) and how it could be developed in view of their future activity as teachers, we used a computer algorithm as a case to explore the relationship between CAS and the knowledge of real numbers as decimal representations. Our work was…

Assink, Egbert M. H. – Journal of Educational Psychology, 1987
In a large-scale field experiment aimed at improving spelling instruction in Dutch schools, the effectiveness of a newly developed algorithmic teaching method was compared with the conventionally and commonly used analogy approach. The analogy group showed comparatively little progress in learning results. (Seventy-five test items are appended).…
