Ellie Lovellette; Dennis J. Bouvier; John Matta – ACM Transactions on Computing Education, 2024
In recent years, computing education researchers have investigated the impact of problem context on students' learning and programming performance. This work continues the investigation motivated, in part, by cognitive load theory and educational research in computer science and other disciplines. The results of this study could help inform…

Monika Mladenovic; Lucija Medak; Divna Krpan – ACM Transactions on Computing Education, 2025
Computer Science (CS) Unplugged activities are designed to engage students with CS concepts. It is an active learning approach combining physical interaction with visual representation. This research article investigates the impact of CS Unplugged on students' understanding of the bubble sort algorithm. Algorithm visualization, traditionally…

Kather, Philipp; Duran, Rodrigo; Vahrenhold, Jan – ACM Transactions on Computing Education, 2022
Previous studies on writing and understanding programs presented evidence that programmers beyond a novice stage utilize plans or plan-like structures. Other studies on code composition showed that learners have difficulties with writing, reading, and debugging code where interacting plans are merged into a short piece of code. In this article, we…
