Varga, Erika B.; Sátán, Ádám – Hungarian Educational Research Journal, 2021
The purpose of this paper is to investigate the pre-enrollment attributes of first-year students at Computer Science BSc programs of the University of Miskolc, Hungary in order to find those that mostly contribute to failure on the Programming Basics first-semester course and, consequently to dropout. Our aim is to detect at-risk students early,…

Grizioti, Marianthi; Kynigos, Chronis – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2021
In this paper, we discuss the need for new approaches to research regarding coding to support students in developing practices in computational thinking, such as abstraction and decomposition, in multidisciplinary contexts. We explore students' activities with a tool integrating constructionist textual programming activity with game-based learning…

Timur, Serkan; Timur, Betül; Güvenç, Elif; Us, Ilknur; Yalçinkaya-Önder, Eylem – Acta Didactica Napocensia, 2021
In this study, it was aimed to examine the pre-service pre-school teachers' opinions about using block-based coding/Scratch in education. 28 pre-service pre-school teachers were participated studying at a public university in a Marmara province region. Within the scope of the study, pre-service teachers were trained on the block-based coding…

Kim, ChanMin; Belland, Brian R.; Baabdullah, Afaf; Lee, Eunseo; Dinç, Emre; Zhang, Anna Y. – AERA Open, 2021
Tinkering is often viewed as arbitrary practice that should be avoided. However, tinkering can be performed as part of a sound reasoning process. In this ethnomethodological study, we investigated tinkering as a reasoning process that construes logical inferences. This is a new asset-based approach that can be applied in computer science…

Wang, Jiahui – International Journal of Computer Science Education in Schools, 2021
With the advancement in technology and the emphasis on computer science education, there has been a strong push for more widespread programming instruction at K-12 and higher education levels. Existing research has mostly focused on students at the secondary and post-secondary levels. Not much research has involved students at the elementary…

Chou, Te-Lien; Tang, Kai-Yu; Tsai, Chin-Chung – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2021
Programming learning has become an essential literacy for computer science (CS) and non-CS students in the digital age. Researchers have addressed that students' conceptions of learning influence their approaches to learning, and thus impact their learning outcomes. Therefore, we aimed to uncover students' conceptions of programming learning…

Martínez, Alexuan; Nieves, Christian; Rúa, Armando – Physics Teacher, 2021
Many physics projects recently designed for high school teachers use Arduino as the main tool for managing sensors and data acquisition. This is a low-cost integrated development environment programmed with a simplified version of the C++ language. In comparison, the Raspberry Pi 3 platform, which also allows for the design of physics projects,…

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,…

Philip Sands – ProQuest LLC, 2021
Over the past 20 years, the field of computer science has experienced a growth in student interest. Despite this increase in participation rates, longstanding gender gaps persist in computer science. Recent research has examined a wide variety of individual factors (e.g., self-efficacy, sense of belonging, etc.) that impact student interest and…

Bertrand Schneider; Tonya Bryant – Cognition and Instruction, 2024
The goal of this paper is to bring new insights to the study of social learning processes by designing measures of collaboration using high-frequency sensor data. More specifically, we are interested in understanding the interplay between moments of collaboration and cooperation, which is an understudied area of research. We collected a multimodal…

Teresa M. Ober; Ying Cheng; Meghan R. Coggins; Paul Brenner; Janice Zdankus; Philip Gonsalves; Emmanuel Johnson; Tim Urdan – Computer Science Education, 2024
Background and Context: Differences in children's and adolescents' initial attitudes about computing and other STEM fields may form during middle school and shape decisions leading to career entry. Early emerging differences in career interest may propagate a lack of diversity in computer science and programming fields. Objective: Though middle…

Anael Kuperwajs Cohen; Alannah Oleson; Amy J. Ko – ACM Transactions on Computing Education, 2024
Collaboration is an important aspect of computing. In a classroom setting, working with others can increase a student's motivation to attempt more challenges, reduce the difficulty of complicated concepts, and bring about greater overall success. Despite extensive research in other domains, there has been minimal exploration within computing on…

Roxana Draganoiu; Florica Moldoveanu; Anca Morar; Alin Moldoveanu – Interactive Learning Environments, 2024
Almost all educational systems still rely on traditional teaching methods: children must absorb huge uncorrelated amounts of information from various disciplines, multidisciplinary aspects are not developed, the fun factor is missing in most of the classes. Many children sometimes do not fully understand the presented theoretical concepts and…

Oriol Borrás-Gené; Raquel Hijón-Neira; Pedro Paredes-Barragán; Lucía Serrano-Luján – International Journal of Game-Based Learning, 2024
Educational escape rooms aims to motivate students, to strengthen knowledge and evaluate learning. Pre-service teachers enrolled in "Computer Science and Digital Competency" course shows lack of motivation and difficulties to realise its usefulness in everyday practice, becoming an ideal context to apply this strategy. 157 students…
