Lihui Sun; Junjie Liu – Education and Information Technologies, 2024
There has been a global consensus to develop computational thinking (CT) in primary education, but the biggest obstacle to promoting CT is teachers' lack of sufficient CT. This study explored the effects of micro: bit educational robotics (MER) programming activities on primary teachers' CT and programming attitudes (PA) while considering the…

Fu, Chanjuan; Hao, Xiaoxin; Shi, Donglin; Wang, Lin; Geng, Fengji – Education and Information Technologies, 2023
Coding learning can promote the development of computational thinking (CT) in young children. The effect of coding learning on CT may vary between different cultures. However, it lacks studies to evaluate the effect of coding learning on the various dimensions of CT in young Chinese children. To provide insight into this question, we recruited…

El-Hamamsy, Laila; Chessel-Lazzarotto, Frédérique; Bruno, Barbara; Roy, Didier; Cahlikova, Tereza; Chevalier, Morgane; Parriaux, Gabriel; Pellet, Jean-Philippe; Lanarès, Jacques; Zufferey, Jessica Dehler; Mondada, Francesco – Education and Information Technologies, 2021
Integrating computer science (CS) into school curricula has become a worldwide preoccupation. Therefore, we present a CS and Robotics integration model and its validation through a large-scale pilot study in the administrative region of the Canton Vaud in Switzerland. Approximately 350 primary school teachers followed a mandatory CS continuing…
