Direct linkZebel-Al Tareq; Raja Jamilah Raja Yusof – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2024
Contribution: A problem-solving approach (PSA) model derived from major computational thinking (CT) concepts. This model can be utilized to formulate solutions for different algorithmic problems and translate them into effective active learning methods. Background: Different teaching approaches for programming are widely available; however, being…

Rowe, Elizabeth; Asbell-Clarke, Jodi; Almeda, Mia; Gasca, Santiago; Edwards, Teon; Bardar, Erin; Shute, Valerie; Ventura, Matthew – International Journal of Computer Science Education in Schools, 2021
The Inclusive Assessment of Computational Thinking (CT) designed for accessibility and learner variability was studied in over 50 classes in US schools (grades 3-8). The validation studies of IACT sampled thousands of students to establish IACT's construct and concurrent validity as well as test-retest reliability. IACT items for each CT practice…
