Zhenhua Wu; Linting Zheng; Li'an Huang – Education and Information Technologies, 2024
Programming has been considered a crucial "object to think with", which can integrate with various disciplines and facilitate learning in other areas. However, existing research primarily focuses on how children learn to code rather than how coding helps them to learn. To address this gap, a quasi-experimental case study was conducted…

Campana, Kathleen; Mills, J. Elizabeth – Journal of Early Childhood Research, 2023
Computational thinking (CT) has emerged as an important method in the United States for helping children learn to solve complex problems and develop skills necessary for coding and other computer science-related endeavors. Research has revealed that CT can be encouraged with children as young as 3-4 years of age. While some preschools and schools…

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…

Somerville, Margaret; Woods, Annette; Duhn, Iris; Rautio, Pauliina; Powell, Sarah; McConnell-Imbriotis, Alison; Galvez, Sarita – International Journal of Qualitative Studies in Education (QSE), 2021
This paper addresses the entanglements of the earth's becoming in a multi site cross hemisphere study of the infinite moments of young children's world making, recorded in multimodal videos, still images, and children's productions. The postqualitative project was informed by new materialist and posthuman theorising. The researchers conducted…

Emily Vera Relkin – ProQuest LLC, 2022
This study explores how children from two to nine years of age develop Computational Thinking (CT) skills. The term "CT" denotes a set of cognitive processes that are useful for framing and solving problems using computers and other information processing agents. Acquisition of CT skills is traditionally associated with learning to code…

McDaniel, Jena; Yoder, Paul; Estes, Annette; Rogers, Sally J. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2020
Purpose: This study was designed to test the incremental validity of more expensive vocal development variables relative to less expensive variables for predicting later expressive language in children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). We devote particular attention to the added value of coding the quality of vocalizations over the quantity of…

Edwards, Susan – Learning, Media and Technology, 2021
Digital play is a pedagogical construct used in early childhood to explain young children's engagement with technologies. Digital play draws upon theories of play to explain young children's learning with technologies. This paper proposes the further development of digital play by examining how the digital aspect of digital play may also be…

Welch, Lise E.; Shumway, Jessica F.; Clarke-Midura, Jody; Lee, Victor R. – Education Sciences, 2022
Programming activities have the potential to provide a rich context for exploring measurement units in early elementary mathematics. This study examines how a small group of young children (ages 5-6) express their emergent conception of a dynamic linear unit and the measurement concepts they found challenging. Video of an introductory programming…
