Ma, Hongliang; Zhao, Mei; Wang, Huixin; Wan, Xinqi; Cavanaugh, Terence W.; Liu, Ji – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2021
Computational thinking (CT) is a fundamental skill and an analytical ability that children in the twenty-first century should develop. Students should begin to work with algorithmic problem-solving and computational methods in K-12. Drawing on a conceptual framework (IGGIA) that combines CT and problem-solving, this study designed and implemented…

Noh, Jiyae; Lee, Jeongmin – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2020
Around the world, programming education is actively promoted by such factors as economic and technical requirements. The use of a robot in programming education could help students understand computer-science concepts more easily. In this study we designed a course in programming a robot for elementary school students and investigated its…

An, Yun-Jo – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2016
Only a limited number of research studies have investigated how students design educational computer games and its impact on student learning. In addition, most studies on educational game design by students were conducted in the areas of mathematics and science. Using the qualitative case study approach, this study explored how seventh graders…

Shelton, Brett E.; Scoresby, Jon – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2011
We discuss the design, creation and implementation of an instructional game for use in a high school poetry class following a commitment to an educational game design principle of "alignment". We studied groups of instructional designers and an interactive fiction computer game they built. The game was implemented in a 9th grade English classroom…
