We introduce the free web-app PyGgb -- the combination of the well-known programming language Python and the dynamic mathematics system GeoGebra. Motivated by the desire to provide an introduction to Python coding in the familiar context of mathematics and geometry, PyGgb allows GeoGebra constructions to be created using Python code. We outline…

Aim and background: Today, students are encouraged to develop spatial visualization ability to meet the challenges of digital technologies impacting their daily life and education when exposed more time to a virtual 3D environment. This study investigated the effect of cognitive flexibility levels on students' spatial visualization abilities and…

The present paper draws on research experiences matured during systematic research and focuses on the potential and processes of scaffolding the development of preschoolers' spatial skills, through engagement in coding activities within the context of a teaching experiment. Children of two urban kindergartens, aged between 4-6, took part in a…

This research investigates the impact of mathematical problems created with Scratch on the problem-solving skills of 8th-grade middle school students. The research was based on the descriptive design of mixed research approaches. In this direction, the research model was single-group pretest-posttest design, which is a weak experimental design…

Nurses acknowledge that their understanding of the shortcomings in the utilization of medical devices stems from insufficient knowledge about their correct usage. The use of Quick Response (QR) technology has paved a new gateway for accessing information and resources. The available evidence confirmed the usefulness of QR codes for use in clinical…

The rapid development of artificial intelligence and large language models (LLMs) has led to significant advancements in applying machine learning techniques across diverse disciplines, including educational science research. This study investigates the potential of LLMs like ChatGPT for qualitative data analysis, focusing on open, axial,…

Whilst there has been significant focus on STEM in Australian education for several years, there has been very little focus on the integration of Digital Technologies (especially coding) with the other STEM disciplines. Similarly, high school mathematics education remains largely a standalone discipline. This paper describes a full year…

The aim of this study is to examine the effect of Micro:bit applications with the participation of 6th grade students on students' attitudes towards coding. In addition participants' opinion regarding Micro:bit applications were examined. In this quantitative study, six-week applications with Micro:bit coding content were carried out using the…

This qualitative case study explored graduate students' views (n=6) on AI-supported applications and an AI-enabled blockbased coding tool (PictoBlox) in science education. Data were gathered over a 39-hour implementation via a semi-structured interview form and screen captures from the activities, and analyzed with content analysis. Participants…

This exploratory study attempts to determine problem solving steps in block based programming environments. The study was carried out throughout one term within Code.org. Participants were 15 6th grade secondary school students enrolled in an IT course at a public secondary school. Observations, screenshots and interviews were analyzed together to…

Computational Thinking (CT) is essential for developing creativity, problem-solving, and digital competence in the 21st century. Coding tools like robotic toys and tablet apps have become popular in early childhood education to support CT development, but there is a debate on which tool is more effective. Little evidence exists on the effect of…

Students in Indonesia have been cutting classes for some time now and it has become a bad habit. They leave their house toward their educational institutions, either school or college, but in fact, they go somewhere else. The issue was supported by the lack of communication between the schools and parents related to the student attendance. Dealing…

This study examines how a data science learning module can be added to a middle school programming curriculum for gifted students. Six gifted students participated in a seven-week program focused on data science using Python programming. We conducted semi-structured interviews with the students' information technology teacher before and after the…

The Association for the Advancement of Computing in Education (AACE) is an international, non-profit educational organization. The Association's purpose is to advance the knowledge, theory, and quality of teaching and learning at all levels with information technology. "eLearn 2025: World Conference on EdTech since 1996" took place in…

Wuxia culture has deep historical roots in traditional Chinese culture and is an important manifestation of the national spirit and social values. This study explores the cultural representation mechanism of Wuxia animation characters and analyzes their educational functions and communication paths. Current research on Wuxia animation is…
