Jiali Zheng; Melissa Duffy; Ge Zhu – Discover Education, 2024
Students in technology majors such as Computer Science and Information Technology need to take a series of computer programming courses to graduate. Yet, not all students will persist in taking programming courses as required, and little is known about the factors influencing their enrollment intentions. Research is needed to better understand…

Orly Barzilai; Sofia Sherman; Moshe Leiba; Hadar Spiegel – Journal of Information Systems Education, 2024
Data Structures and Algorithms (DS) is a basic computer science course that is a prerequisite for taking advanced information systems (IS) curriculum courses. The course aims to teach students how to analyze a problem, design a solution, and implement it using pseudocode to construct knowledge and develop the necessary skills for algorithmic…

Deepak Dawar – Information Systems Education Journal, 2024
Learning computer programming is typically difficult for newcomers. Demotivation and learned helplessness have received much attention. Besides the subject's intricacy, low in-class participation has been associated with poor student achievement. This paper presents a follow-up, stage 2 study on the novel instructional technique, Student-Driven…

Joyce Vogel; Dan Bouhnik – European Journal of Education, 2024
Introduction to Computer Science is traditionally the first course that all computer science and software engineering majors take. The course introduces many problem-solving techniques which can be challenging for many freshman students. In order to mitigate some of the issues of this course, we, at the Higher Education Institute, introduced a new…

Joe Michael Allen – ProQuest LLC, 2021
A well-run introductory CS1 course is essential for all students within CS education. CS1 is necessary to keep students in the major and important to attract non-majors to the CS field. Unfortunately, there are many well-known issues that most CS1 courses have in common: high drop rates, low retention, high student stress, student struggle,…

Yadav, Alok Kumar; Oyelere, Solomon Sunday – Education and Information Technologies, 2021
This paper intends to present an overview of a mobile game-based learning application, BaghLearn that develops and upskills programming and algorithmic knowledge by cross-curricular capabilities through a traditional world-based game. The focus of this research was to explore the learning effectiveness of BaghLearn on students. Mixed method…

Leidig, Jonathan P. – Information Systems Education Journal, 2023
Educators are tasked with continually updating course objectives, content, assignments, and assessment to meet model curriculum guidelines. IS2020 proposes program level outcomes for required and elective areas. Two elective areas in IS2020 are Data and Business Analytics and Data and Information Visualization. IS2020 details 14 program level…

Tamatea, Laurence – Research and Practice in Technology Enhanced Learning, 2019
Internationally, coding is increasingly introduced into primary and junior high schools (children generally aged between 5 and 15) on a compulsory basis, though not all stakeholders support this 'initiative'. In response to the public reception, discussion highlights popular argument around compulsory coding in school education. This is an…

Ferguson, Roger C.; Leidig, Paul M.; Reynolds, John H. – Information Systems Education Journal, 2015
General education is more than a list of required courses a student must take to complete their degree. For most universities, general education is the groundwork for the student's university experience. These courses span multiple disciplines and allow students to experience a wide range of topics on their path to graduation. Programming classes,…

Burckhardt, Philipp; Nugent, Rebecca; Genovese, Christopher R. – Journal of Statistics and Data Science Education, 2021
Revisiting the seminal 2010 Nolan and Temple Lang article on the role of computing in the statistics curricula, we discuss several trends that have emerged over the last ten years. The rise of data science has coincided with a broadening audience for learning statistics and using computational packages and tools. It has also increased the need for…

Leonard, Lori N. K.; Jones, Kiku; Lang, Guido – Information Systems Education Journal, 2019
Information systems (IS) curriculum review is a continuous process. Universities seek to offer content that they believe will be most beneficial to students as they begin their career. However, that content may or may not satisfy employer needs. This paper, which is part of a larger study, seeks to determine if required course content matches the…

Baugh, Jeanne M. – Information Systems Education Journal, 2015
All Computer Information Systems programs require a database course for their majors. This paper describes an approach to such a course in which real world examples, both design projects and actual database application projects are incorporated throughout the semester. Students are expected to apply the traditional database concepts to actual…

Secules, Stephen; Lawson, Wesley – Advances in Engineering Education, 2019
This paper compares an innovative approach to teaching a required introductory C programming course to a traditional C programming course for electrical engineering (EE) students. The novel course utilizes hardware-based projects to motivate students to master language syntax and implement key programming concepts and best practices. In a mixed…

Eid, Chaker; Millham, Richard – American Journal of Business Education, 2013
In this paper, we investigate whether and how mathematics factors into students' performance in IT learning. The involved cognitive levels of students learning mathematics and hence problem solving, are correlated to how well they are able to transpose their knowledge and apply it to problem solving in the IT field(s). Our hypothesis is that if…
