Chung, Cheng-Yu; Hsiao, I-Han; Lin, Yi-Ling – Journal of Research on Technology in Education, 2023
Creating practice questions for programming learning is not an easy job. It requires the instructor to diligently organize heterogeneous learning resources. Although educational technologies have been adopted across levels of programming learning, programming question generation (PQG) is still predominantly performed by instructors without…

Chen, Peggy P. – New Directions for Teaching and Learning, 2023
Many introductory computer science (CS) courses are intended to address the increased demand for computer literacy and the development of cross-cutting concepts and practices of computational thinking (CT). Colleges and universities offer introductory CS courses every semester toward this end. The issue is centered on how to support CT learning in…

Antti-Jussi Lakanen; Ville Isomöttönen – Informatics in Education, 2023
This research investigates university students' success in their first programming course (CS1) in relation to their motivation, mathematical ability, programming self-efficacy, and initial goal setting. To our knowledge, these constructs have not been measured in a single study before in the Finnish context. The selection of the constructs is in…

Vandenberg, Jessica; Lynch, Collin; Boyer, Kristy Elizabeth; Wiebe, Eric – Computer Science Education, 2023
Background and Context: Students' self-efficacy toward computing affect their participation in related tasks and courses. Self-efficacy is likely influenced by students' initial experiences and exposure to computer science (CS) activities. Moreover, student interest in a subject likely informs their ability to effectively regulate their learning…

Una Tellhed; Fredrik Björklund; Kalle Kallio Strand; Karolin Schöttelndreier – Journal for STEM Education Research, 2023
To increase engagement with science and technology, young people around the world are encouraged to attend activities at science centers. But how effective are these activities? Since women have weaker ability beliefs and interest in technology than men, it is especially important to learn how science center visits affect them. In this study, we…

First Graders Coordination of Counting and Movements on a Grid When Programming with Tangible Blocks
Abigail Erskine; Laura Bofferding; Sezai Kocabos; Haoran Tang – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2023
As elementary students begin to program using tangible blocks, they must coordinate their use of counting with the movements, directions, and numbers they use to move a character. In our study, we analyzed 13 first graders' first attempts at coordinating these elements when playing a programming game on the iPad that used tangible programming…

Méndez Irizarry, Alejandra S. – ProQuest LLC, 2023
This doctoral dissertation documents the experiences of women (student and faculty) in computer science programs. The research emerges from the literature on the gender gap in computing and video gaming. Thus, the author seeks to find the meaning that participants have granted to their experiences as undergraduate students and faculty, in a…

Amoudi, Ghada; Tbaishat, Dina – Education and Information Technologies, 2023
Social network analysis involves delicate and sophisticated mathematical concepts which are abstract and challenging to acquire by traditional methods. Many studies show that female students perform poorly in computer science-related courses compared to male students. To address these issues, this research investigates the impact of employing a…

Gough, John – Australian Primary Mathematics Classroom, 2018
In fact, ever since Seymour Papert (famous in his later years for constructionism, a learning theory that married conceptual constructivism with concrete experience) created Logo programming, many schools have been coding using Logo, the educational computer programming software that has the famous 'turtle' on the computer screen. Importantly,…

Attard, Lara; Busuttil, Leonard – Informatics in Education, 2020
Programming is one of the most important aspects of a Computing course. Teaching programming is a challenging task due to a number of factors, ranging from lack of student problem solving skills to different teaching methods. This paper focuses on Maltese Computing teachers' perspectives about the difficulties encountered when teaching programming…

Rina Zviel Girshin; Nathan Rosenberg; Ida Kukliansky – Journal of Research in Childhood Education, 2024
This longitudinal study of robot programming in early childhood (ROPEC) was performed based on summative and formative assessments of the robotics program in kindergarten and year one of elementary school. The study aims to broaden our knowledge about children's understanding of programming, their confidence in ability to read and write programs,…

Yuan-Chen Liu; Tzu-Hua Huang; Chien-Chia Huang – Interactive Learning Environments, 2024
In this study, an interactive programming learning environment was built with two types of error prompt functions: 1) the key prompt and 2) step-by-step prompt. A quasi-experimental study was conducted for five weeks, in which 75 sixth grade students from disadvantaged learning environments in Taipei, Taiwan, were divided into three groups: 1) the…

The game-based learning approach to developing students' computational thinking (CT) current has received attention from researchers. However, the compatibility between games and instruction is often insufficient to accommodate the entertaining and educational nature of the curriculum entirely, and the benefits of game-based learning could be…
