Lauren E. Margulieux; Yin-Chan Liao; Erin Anderson; Miranda C. Parker; Brendan D. Calandra – ACM Transactions on Computing Education, 2024
Integrated computing curricula combine learning objectives in computing with those in another discipline, like literacy, math, or science, to give all students experience with computing, typically before they must decide whether to take standalone CS courses. One goal of integrated computing curricula is to provide an accessible path to an…

Alan Gazzano – Arts Education Policy Review, 2024
This study examines the underpinnings of Japan's "programming education" in elementary school music, officially implemented nationwide in 2020. Through that reform, which has introduced "programming thinking" (a local version of computational thinking) in all areas of compulsory education, the country follows the international…

Kong, Siu-Cheung, Ed.; Abelson, Harold, Ed. – MIT Press, 2022
Computing has become an essential part of today's primary and secondary school curricula. In recent years, K-12 computer education has shifted from computer science itself to the broader perspective of computational thinking (CT), which is less about technology than a way of thinking and solving problems--"a fundamental skill for everyone,…

Sharin Rawhiya Jacob; Mark Warschauer – CATESOL Journal, 2024
Over the last decade, there has been an explosion of national interest in computer science (CS) education. In response to this, several organizations and initiatives have emerged in recent years to expand the CS pipeline. However, within these broad and laudable efforts, one important area has been largely overlooked--the instruction of CS to…

De Santo, Alessio; Farah, Juan Carlos; Martinez, Marc Lafuente; Moro, Arielle; Bergram, Kristoffer; Purohit, Aditya Kumar; Felber, Pascal; Gillet, Denis; Holzer, Adrian – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2022
Computational thinking (CT) skills are becoming increasingly relevant for future professionals across all domains, beyond computer science (CS). As such, an increasing number of bachelor's and master's programs outside of the CS discipline integrate CT courses within their study program. At the same time, tools such as notebooks and interactive…

Merve Aydin; Ünal Çakiroglu – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2025
Background: Students experience higher-order thinking skills by finding ways to solve the problem, debugging errors while applying the solution, and testing the solution in programming. However, the inability to create schemas that will characterise programming structures is one of the difficulties during this process. Objectives: This study aimed…
