The information professions demand digitally literate practitioners who can navigate the increasingly complex technological environments of libraries and archives. While basic literacy is presumed among graduate students, many students express fear and anxiety when approaching new technologies. These psychological barriers have not been addressed…

The purposes of the current study were to examine the effectiveness of the multimedia computer-based lessons on programming with Scratch in Technology integrated with the TGT cooperative learning technique based on the 80/80 efficiency criterion, to compare the learning achievement of Grade 7 students between those taught using multimedia…

Background: Even among women who persist in the gender-imbalanced engineering fields, women on engineering design teams tend to take on non-technical roles. Understanding the mechanisms that inform this phenomenon is important for encouraging more women in STEM in order to close the gender gap. Although factors such as self-efficacy, task…

Background and Context: To offer more experiences in the field, our study employed secondary school pre-service teachers as assistants in courses for secondary school students learning computer coding with the help of smart textiles. Objective: Did pre-service teachers assisting in CS courses have more highly developed pedagogical content…

Dashboards have become a crucial element of contemporary business operation and management; therefore, it is desirable for business students to acquire knowledge of them. This article investigates the effectiveness of designing learning activities around investment dashboards in the context of introductory business analytics (IBA) courses. We…

The aim of this study is to evaluate the 10th grade robotics coding curriculum (2020) with a participant-oriented program evaluation approach. The research was designed with the convergent mixed methods design. This design is the most well-known mixed research design, whereby both qualitative and quantitative data are collected simultaneously. 60…

The impact of cognitive biases, particularly biased self-assessment, on learning outcomes and decision-making in higher education is of great significance. This study delves into the confluence of cognitive biases and user experience in spreadsheet programming as a crucial IT skill across various academic disciplines. Through a quantitative…

Recently scientists have underscored a significant mismatch between the latest theoretical Computational Thinking conceptualizations as an upcoming literacy that goes beyond computer science, and its operationalizations in current empirical research and designs, which are limited to coding-centred and domain-specific tools and approaches. To…

This study builds on a recent systematic mapping of computing education literature by conducting an in-depth qualitative analysis of selected studies on group work in Project-Based Learning (PjBL), published between 2010 and 2021. We examined how prominent theoretical frameworks are used in this context. We found that frameworks were often applied…

Contract cheating is a significant concern in higher education, requiring a multifaceted teaching and learning approach to address it. Quizzing students about their writing to promote engagement, confirm authorship and detect cheating has not yet been investigated systematically. Therefore, in this study, our objective was to explore the validity…

Background/purpose: This study investigates how knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) influence cybersecurity awareness (CSA) among students in Thai educational institutions. The research addresses regional disparities in cybersecurity readiness by incorporating a culturally responsive adaptation of the KAP model. Materials/methods: A…

This study explores the integration of game play into an inclusive, hands-on computing project in Calculus class. The project is focused on designing and analyzing priority switches for applications competing for computational resources on embedded devices such as smart watches and tablets. By engaging students in real-world problem-solving…

Background: Traditional methods of managing educational materials are repetitive and often lack scalability. Integrating DevOps principles into educational content creation would provide a more streamlined approach to delivery. Objective: This solution proposal report shares initial experiences and introduces the concept of Lecture as Code (LaC),…

Generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) has introduced a novel aspect to educational methodologies and sparked fresh dialogues regarding the creation and evaluation of instructional resources. This project seeks to investigate the impact of GenAI on the development and assessment of online course materials and learners' engagement with these…

Computer Science (CS), despite being an integral part of STEM education, remains less accessible to school students. This study examines the Challenge program, which enables high-achieving high school students to earn a B.Sc. degree in CS. Over two years, from 458 applicants, 160 passed the admission tests, but only 34 completed their degree. The…
