Zhou, Ying; Chai, Ching Sing; Li, Xiuting; Ma, Chao; Li, Baoping; Yu, Ding; Liang, Jyh-Chong – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2023
Computational thinking is a way of thinking that helps people "think like a computer scientist" to solve practical problems. However, practicing computational thinking through programming is dependent on the problem solvers' metacognition. This study investigated students' metacognitive planning and problem-solving performance in…

Wei Li; Cheng-Ye Liu; Judy C. R. Tseng – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2024
Collaborative programming helps improve students' computational thinking and increases their confidence in solving programming problems. However, the effect of collaborative learning is not ideal because it is difficult for students to mobilize metacognition to regulate learning spontaneously. To guide students to effectively regulate the learning…

Parham, Jennifer R. – ProQuest LLC, 2009
According to industry representatives, computer science education needs to emphasize the processes involved in solving computing problems rather than their solutions. Most of the current assessment tools used by universities and computer science departments analyze student answers to problems rather than investigating the processes involved in…
