Mike Karlin; Cristina Stephany; Mahya Minaiy; Swati Mehta; Marcia Reed; Desiderio Acosta; Claudia Garcia-Valles; Christine Kim; Adan Gonzalez; Sarah Wong – Journal of Technology Education, 2024
While increasing emphasis has been placed on computer science (CS) and computational thinking (CT) little is known about these topics in elementary classrooms. Significant equity gaps exist within CS/CT at the elementary level, with a major contributor being the lack of highly qualified CS/CT elementary teachers. Professional development (PD) for…

Tyler S. Love; Scott R. Bartholomew; Jessica Yauney – Journal for STEM Education Research, 2022
Developing computational thinking (CT) skills at an early age can help develop literacy, science, and mathematics skills; however, CT instruction in grades K-2 remains limited. This study examined the perceptions of 45 K-2 teachers from 30 school districts before and after a CT professional development (PD) experience. The PD included two online…

Weipeng Yang – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2024
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…

Solorio, Christian D.; Gire, Elizabeth; Roundy, David – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2021
The COVID-19 pandemic has made conducting in-person research a health risk for interviewers and participants. Near the start of the pandemic, many universities pivoted to emergency remote teaching where courses were delivered remotely in observance of safety guidelines. The safety guidelines also necessitated that research be done remotely. We…

Ng, Oi-Lam; Ni, Yujing; Shi, Lian; Chen, Gaowei; Cui, Zhihao – Journal of Education for Teaching: International Research and Pedagogy, 2021
This paper documents the process and outcome of the development and validation of a coding scheme to analyse mathematics classroom discourse in the context of Hong Kong primary schools. The objective of this coding scheme was to systematically analyse teacher discourse behaviours before and after an intervention programme; the programme aimed to…

Emerson, Andrew; Rodríguez, Fernando J.; Mott, Bradford; Smith, Andy; Min, Wookhee; Boyer, Kristy Elizabeth; Smith, Cody; Wiebe, Eric; Lester, James – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2019
Recent years have seen a growing interest in block-based programming environments for computer science education. While these environments hold significant potential for novice programmers, they lack the adaptive support necessary to accommodate students exhibiting a wide range of initial capabilities and dispositions toward computing. A promising…

Kim Luttgen; Kevin Huang; Eunice Chow; Shuangting Yang; Linlin Li – Grantee Submission, 2024
Rural students often face challenges in receiving high-quality education in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM). Yet without meaningful STEM educational opportunities, rural students might not develop the knowledge and skills needed to compete in a technology-driven workforce. The Learning by Making program (LbyM), an innovative…

Flesch, Breeann; Gabaldón, Camila; Nabity, Matthew; Thomas, Darryl – International Journal of Computer Science Education in Schools, 2021
Increasing the inclusion of underrepresented individuals in coding is an intractable problem, with a variety of initiatives trying to improve the situation. Many of these initiatives involve STEAM education, which combines the arts with traditional STEM disciplines. Evidence is emerging that this approach is making headway on this complex problem.…
