Direct linkGrajdura, Sarah; Niemeier, Deb – Journal of Civil Engineering Education, 2023
Addressing societal issues in civil and environmental engineering increasingly requires skills in data science and programming. To date, there is not much known about the extent students are learning these skills in current civil and environmental engineering curricula. We conducted a survey of accredited civil and environmental engineering…

Çetinkaya-Rundel, Mine; Ellison, Victoria – Journal of Statistics and Data Science Education, 2021
The proliferation of vast quantities of available datasets that are large and complex in nature has challenged universities to keep up with the demand for graduates trained in both the statistical and the computational set of skills required to effectively plan, acquire, manage, analyze, and communicate the findings of such data. To keep up with…

Del Toro, Israel; Dickson, Kimberly; Hakes, Alyssa S.; Newman, Shannon L. – American Biology Teacher, 2022
Increasingly, students training in the biological sciences depend on a proper grounding in biological statistics, data science and experimental design. As biological datasets increase in size and complexity, transparent data management and analytical methods are essential skills for undergraduate biologists. We propose that using the software R…

Cárdenas-Cobo, Jesennia; Puris, Amilkar; Novoa-Hernández, Pavel; Galindo, José Angel; Benavides, David – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2020
Learning computer programming is a challenging process. Among the current approaches for overcoming this challenge, visual programming languages (VPLs), such as Scratch, have shown very promising results for beginners. Interestingly, some higher education institutions have started to use VPLs to introduce basic programming concepts, mainly in CS1…

Radovilsky, Zinovy; Hegde, Vishwanath – Journal of Information Systems Education, 2022
Data Mining (DM) is one of the most offered courses in data analytics education. However, the design and delivery of DM courses present a number of challenges and issues that stem from the DM's interdisciplinary nature and the industry expectations to generate a broader range of skills from the analytics programs. In this research, we identified…

Coetzee, Bronwynè; Kagee, Ashraf – Africa Education Review, 2021
In psychology departments in South Africa, the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) is routinely used for quantitative analysis. While SPSS has a user-friendly interface, it does not permit application of some of the more sophisticated analytic approaches and therefore has limited functionality. The programming language R can perform…
