Instructional Strategies for Teaching Computer Programming: Interactions with the Cognitive Style Reflection-Impulsivity.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
van Merrienboer, Jeroen J. G. – Journal of Research on Computing in Education, 1990
Describes two experiments, one with undergraduates and one with high school students, that tested instructional strategies for teaching computer programing. The cognitive styles of impulsivity and reflection are examined, completion strategy versus generation strategy is tested, and results support a preferential model rather than a compensatory…
