Hsu, Yu-Chang; Ching, Yu-Hui; Baldwin, Sally – Journal of Computers in Mathematics and Science Teaching, 2018
This research explored how K-16 educators learned physical computing, and developed as maker-educators in an online graduate course. With peer support and instructor guidance, these educators designed maker projects using Scratch and Makey Makey, and developed educational maker proposals with plans of teaching the topics of their choice in STEAM…

How, Meng-Leong; Looi, Chee-Kit – International Journal of Computer Science Education in Schools, 2018
Computational Thinking (CT) is pervasive in our daily lives and is useful for problem-solving. Decision-making is a crucial part of problem-solving. In the extant literature, problem-solving strategies in educational settings are often conveniently attributed to intuition; however, it is well documented that computer programmers might even have…

Rossano, Veronica; Roselli, Teresa; Quercia, Gaetano – International Association for Development of the Information Society, 2018
The Computational Thinking recently has been recognised as one of the basic knowledge to be developed since childhood. Coding and computers are not just programming, but tools that help students to develop problem solving skills and more deep understand of the way things work. For these reasons, great attention has been focused on this topic both…

Video Prompting to Teach Robotics and Coding to Middle School Students with Autism Spectrum Disorder
Wright, John C.; Knight, Victoria F.; Barton, Erin E.; Edwards-Bowyer, Meghan – Journal of Special Education Technology, 2021
Video-based modeling is an evidence-based practice for teaching social and communication skills, functional and daily living skills, and some academic skills (i.e., math) to students with autism spectrum disorder. The efficacy of video-based modeling, however, has not yet been established for STEM skills related to science, technology, or…

Anohah, Ebenezer; Suhonen, Jarkko – International Journal of Learning Technology, 2019
There has been minimal investigation into students programming their indigenous projects in relation to blocks of code and mainstream languages in computing education. This study examines high school students' experiences of programming non-western symbols using visual and text-based learning technologies. The high school students were exposed to…

Giannandrea, Lorella; Gratani, Francesca; Renieri, Alessandra – Research on Education and Media, 2020
This article reports on the results of a teacher training course in which 41 teachers, working together with three university researchers, experienced a different way to engage in meaningful teaching and learning activities in design, coding and robotics. The course was run in an Italian school during the lock-down period of the COVID-19…

Abeywardena, Ishan Sudeera – Journal of Learning for Development, 2017
With the rise of OER and multimedia such as YouTube videos, many academic institutions are becoming mindful of the richness they bring into the teaching and learning process. Given that multimedia resources cannot be directly integrated into printed material, the only available alternative is to print hyperlinks, which teachers and learners can…

Mason, Stacie L.; Rich, Peter J. – Contemporary Issues in Technology and Teacher Education (CITE Journal), 2019
This literature review synthesized current research on preservice and in-service programs that improve K-6 teachers' attitudes, self-efficacy, or knowledge to teach computing, coding, or computational thinking. A review of current computing training for elementary teachers revealed 21 studies: 12 involving preservice teachers and nine involving…

Colon-Acosta, Nirmaliz – ProQuest LLC, 2019
As new introductory block-based coding applications for young students to learn basic computer science concepts, such as, loops and conditionals, continue to increase in popularity, it is necessary to consider the best method of teaching students these skills. Many of these products continue to exhibit programmatic misconceptions of these concepts…

Dohn, Niels Bonderup – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2020
The ability to code computer programs is considered an important part of literacy in today's society. This paper reports from a case study in two sixth-grade classes where Scratch coding was part of six mathematics lessons. The aim of the study was to investigate how Scratch coding affected students' interest development in coding and in…

Maruyama, Yukiko – International Association for Development of the Information Society, 2019
To investigate the effects that experiences in programming have on parents' concerns about programming education in elementary schools, a survey was carried out before and after parent-children workshops. Participation in the programming workshops seemed to promote parents' understanding of programming, boost their expectations, and decrease their…
