Per Anderhag; Niklas Salomonsson; Andre Bürgers; Cesar Estay Espinola; Birgit Fahrman; Dana Seifeddine Ehdwall; Maria Sundler – International Journal of Technology and Design Education, 2024
During a relatively short period of time, programming has been implemented in the national curriculum of the compulsory school in Sweden. Since 2018, programming is a new content in the technology subject and the research field has discussed some of the challenges teachers and students, who generally have little experiences of programming, face…

Meghan M. Parkinson; Seppe Hermans; David Gijbels; Daniel L. Dinsmore – Computer Science Education, 2024
Background and Context: More data are needed about how young learners identify and fix errors while programming in pairs. Objective: The study will identify discernible patterns in the intersection between debugging processes and the type of regulation used during debugging while children engage in coding to drive further theory and model…

Selena Steinberg; Melissa Gresalfi; Lauren Vogelstein; Corey Brady – Journal of Research on Technology in Education, 2024
This paper considers how a curricular design that integrated computer programming and creative movement shaped students' engagement with computing. We draw on data from a camp for middle schoolers, focusing on an activity in which students used the programming environment NetLogo to re-represent their physical choreography. We analyze the extent…

David DeLiema; Ashley Hufnagle; Miguel Ovies-Bocanegra – British Journal of Educational Psychology, 2025
Background: Moments of failure during learning present a wide range of opportunities for growth. However, experimental research and meta reviews focused on failure and learning tend to target singular valued learning processes, such as efficient fixes or transfer of conceptual understanding. These analytical decisions conflict with research…

David DeLiema; Jeffrey K. Bye; Vijay Marupudi – ACM Transactions on Computing Education, 2024
Learning to respond to a computer program that is not working as intended is often characterized as finding a singular bug causing a singular problem. This framing underemphasizes the wide range of ways that students and teachers could notice discrepancies from their intention, propose causes of those discrepancies, and implement interventions.…

Dahn, Maggie; DeLiema, David; Enyedy, Noel – Teachers College Record, 2020
Background/Context: Computer science has been making its way into K-12 education for some time now. As computer science education has moved into learning spaces, research has focused on teaching computer science skills and principles but has not sufficiently explored the emotional aspects of students' experiences. This topic warrants further study…
