Demir, Faruk – Education and Information Technologies, 2022
The abstract structure, logic, negative perceptions, and anxiety of programming are seen as obstacles to novice programmers. The importance of educational programming languages is increasing day by day in overcoming these obstacles. In this study, it was aimed to investigate the effect of educational programming language integration on academic…

Tessa Charles; Carl Gwilliam – Journal for STEM Education Research, 2023
STEM fields, such as physics, increasingly rely on complex programs to analyse large datasets, thus teaching students the required programming skills is an important component of all STEM curricula. Since undergraduate students often have no prior coding experience, they are reliant on error messages as the primary diagnostic tool to identify and…

Chang, Chih-Kai – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2014
Scratch, a visual programming language, was used in many studies in computer science education. Most of them reported positive results by integrating Scratch into K-12 computer courses. However, the object-oriented concept, one of the important computational thinking skills, is not represented well in Scratch. Alice, another visual programming…
