Hao-Yue Jin; Maria Cutumisu – Education and Information Technologies, 2024
Computational thinking (CT) is considered to be a critical problem-solving toolkit in the development of every student in the digital twenty-first century. Thus, it is believed that the integration of deeper learning in CT education is an approach to help students transfer their CT skills beyond the classroom. Few literature reviews have mapped…

Siu-Cheung Kong; Wei Shen – Interactive Learning Environments, 2024
Logistic regression models have traditionally been used to identify the factors contributing to students' conceptual understanding. With the advancement of the machine learning-based research approach, there are reports that some machine learning algorithms outperform logistic regression models in terms of prediction. In this study, we collected…

Jan Olsson; Carina Granberg – Mathematical Thinking and Learning: An International Journal, 2024
Studies have shown that learning mathematics through programming can be complex and that the programming itself might even hamper students' learning. However, few studies have focused on the role of the teacher and the teacher-student interaction that aims to support students' learning when using programming. The present study examines a didactic…

Dorottya Demszky; Jing Liu; Heather C. Hill; Dan Jurafsky; Chris Piech – Educational Evaluation and Policy Analysis, 2024
Providing consistent, individualized feedback to teachers is essential for improving instruction but can be prohibitively resource-intensive in most educational contexts. We develop M-Powering Teachers, an automated tool based on natural language processing to give teachers feedback on their uptake of student contributions, a high-leverage…

Bakki, Aicha; Oubahssi, Lahcen; George, Sébastien; Cherkaoui, Chihab – Education and Information Technologies, 2019
This paper presents an authoring tool in the cMOOC context called MOOCAT (MOOC Authoring Tool). It is a visual authoring tool that helps teachers to design cMOOC-oriented pedagogical scenarios. MOOCAT has two main innovative features. The first is that it offers a tool for conceiving pedagogical scenarios in a simple way through graphical…

Luce, Thom – Information Systems Education Journal, 2020
This paper reviews the evolution of a senior level, live-client project development capstone class in the Analytics and Information Systems department of an AACSB accredited College of Business. The paper traces changes in methodologies and technologies leading to the current Scrum based approach, using ASP.NET Model-View-Controller, MVC, as the…

Zhu, Hongwei; Shen, Yuzhong – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2021
Contribution: An approach of integrating financial literacy into an introductory programming course is introduced. New learning materials are developed and the impact of the approach on motivating students and improving learning outcomes are evaluated using mixed methods. Background: More than two-thirds of college students in the U.S. graduate…

Saqr, Mohammed; Ng, Kwok; Oyelere, Solomon Sunday; Tedre, Matti – ACM Transactions on Computing Education, 2021
The momentum around computational thinking (CT) has kindled a rising wave of research initiatives and scholarly contributions seeking to capitalize on the opportunities that CT could bring. A number of literature reviews have showed a vibrant community of practitioners and a growing number of publications. However, the history and evolution of the…

Saito, Daisuke; Yajima, Risei; Washizaki, Hironori; Fukazawa, Yoshiaki – Education Sciences, 2021
In evaluating the learning achievement of programming-thinking skills, the method of using a rubric that describes evaluation items and evaluation stages is widely employed. However, few studies have evaluated the reliability, validity, and consistency of the rubrics themselves. In this study, we introduced a statistical method for evaluating the…

Kale, Ugur; Yuan, Jiangmei – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2021
Computational thinking is a means to understand and solve complex problems through using computer science concepts and techniques. While there is an increase in the number of initiatives focusing on coding, whether they (a) address computational thinking and problem-solving skills and (b) use methods of teaching problem solving is yet to be…

Connolly, Cornelia; Hijón-Neira, Raquel; Grádaigh, Seán Ó. – International Journal of Mobile and Blended Learning, 2021
Research on the role of mobile learning in computational thinking is limited, and even more so in its use in initial teacher education. Aligned to this there is a need to consider how to introduce and expose pre-service teachers to computational thinking constructs within the context of the subject area they will teach in their future classrooms.…

Denning, Peter J.; Tedre, Matti – Informatics in Education, 2021
Over its short disciplinary history, computing has seen a stunning number of descriptions of the field's characteristic ways of thinking and practicing, under a large number of different labels. One of the more recent variants, notably in the context of K-12 education, is "computational thinking", which became popular in the early 2000s,…

Dong, Yihuan; Marwan, Samiha; Shabrina, Preya; Price, Thomas; Barnes, Tiffany – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2021
Over the years, researchers have studied novice programming behaviors when doing assignments and projects to identify struggling students. Much of these efforts focused on using student programming and interaction features to predict student success at a course level. While these methods are effective at early detection of struggling students in…

Chongning Sun – ProQuest LLC, 2021
Self-efficacy is seen as a barrier for youth, females in particular, to enter computer science (CS). In this study, I presented a near-peer mentoring model that focused on changing the mentee's self-efficacy in CS. The present study had three objectives: (a) to design a near-peer mentoring model (i.e., a conceptual model) around the sources of…

Waite, Jane Lisa; Curzon, Paul; Marsh, William; Sentance, Sue; Hadwen-Bennett, Alex – International Journal of Computer Science Education in Schools, 2018
Research indicates that understanding levels of abstraction (LOA) and being able to move between the levels is essential to programming success. For K-5 contexts LOA levels have been named: problem, design, code and running the code. In a qualitative exploratory study, five K-5 teachers were interviewed on their uses of LOA, particularly the…
