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…

Shin, Yoonhee; Jung, Jaewon; Zumbach, Joerg; Yi, Eunseon – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2023
This study explores the effects of worked-out examples and metacognitive scaffolding on novice learners' knowledge performance, cognitive loads, and self-regulation skills in problem-solving programming. 126 undergraduate students in a computer programming fundamentals course were randomly assigned to one of four groups: (1) task performance with…

Lakshminarayanan, Srinivasan; Rao, N. J. – Cogent Education, 2021
CS1 courses are designed in Indian Institutions as a lecture course of three to four credits and one credit lab course. The issues related to curriculum design, instruction design, and students' learning manifest themselves as issues in the lab programs. This situation presents the lab instructor with an opportunity to understand and address the…

Shin, Yoonhee; Song, Donggil – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2022
This study explores the effect of self-regulated learning support on learners' cognitive load and problem-solving performance, considering cases from well-structured to ill-structured tasks in a computer programing course. Sixty-seven undergraduate students in a computer programing fundamentals course were randomly assigned into one of two groups:…

Sanders, Ian; Scholtz, Tamarisk – African Journal of Research in Mathematics, Science and Technology Education, 2012
Recursion is an important concept for any computer science student to master. Many first year students develop the viable "copies" mental model of recursion and can successfully trace the execution of a simple recursive function. This article discusses a study focused on determining whether the ability to successfully trace a recursive…
