Ying-Chieh Liu; Hung-Yi Chen – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2025
Contribution: Expand the scope of factors influencing self-efficacy and highlight the importance of teaching quality, peer support, perceived course value, the moderating effects of self-regulation, and adversity quotient (AQ). Background: Self-efficacy has been regarded as an important factor in students' learning performance. However, little…

Larraza-Mendiluze, Edurne; Arbelaitz, Olatz; Arruarte, Ana; Lukas, Jose F.; Garay-Vitoria, Nestor – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2020
Contribution: A learning-by-teaching methodology through games can be used to promote informatics (computer science) in primary and secondary education. Applying the proposed activities can change students' perception of informatics from seeing it as merely using computers to seeing its relationship with mathematics. The experience can also help…

Rennick, Christopher; Hulls, Carol C. W.; McKay, Kenneth N. – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2019
Contribution: A semester-long, open-ended design project was implemented to promote intellectual development of first-year students while reinforcing event-driven/procedural programming principles. This paper describes this approach, and an evaluation strategy using Perry's model for intellectual development. The results show that students can…

Sung, K.; Hillyard, C.; Angotti, R. L.; Panitz, M. W.; Goldstein, D. S.; Nordlinger, J. – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2011
Despite the proven success of using computer video games as a context for teaching introductory programming (CS1/2) courses, barriers including the lack of adoptable materials, required background expertise (in graphics/games), and institutional acceptance still prevent interested faculty members from experimenting with this approach. Game-themed…
