Mahatanankoon, Pruthikrai; Wolf, James – Information Systems Education Journal, 2021
Learning a computer programming language is typically one of the basic requirements of being an information technology (IT) major. While other studies previously investigate computer programming self-efficacy and grit, their relationships between "shallow" and "deep" learning (Miller et al., 1996) have not been thoroughly…

Chun-Yen Tsai; Yun-An Chen; Fu-Pei Hsieh; Min-Hsiung Chuang; Chien-Liang Lin – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2024
In higher education, it is challenging to cultivate non-computer science majors' programming concepts. This study used the GAME model (gamification, assessment, modeling, and enquiry) in a programming education course to enhance undergraduates' self-efficacy and performance of basic programming concepts. There were 83 undergraduates taking part in…

Ayesha Sohail; Huma Akram – Pedagogical Research, 2025
The ability to properly evaluate one's own academic progress has long been considered a predictor of academic success. However, its distinctive role in the context of computational mathematics remains underexplored. Grounded in social cognitive theory, this study investigates the critical role of self-regulated learning (SRL) strategies in…

Menon, Pratibha – Information Systems Education Journal, 2021
Learning how to become a self-regulated learner could benefit students in introductory undergraduate courses, such as computer programming. This study explores the perceived value of instructional and skill-building activities and students' self-efficacy to learn and apply programming skills in an introductory computer programming course. The…

Menon, Pratibha – Information Systems Education Journal, 2022
The autonomy and flexibility that online learning contents provide students in a traditional face-to-face course require them to pick up newer strategies for regulating their learning process. This study focuses on identifying how students' self-reported traits of self-regulated learning may relate to the task value of the learning contents of an…

Huang, Sheng-Bo; Jeng, Yu-Lin; Lai, Chin-Feng – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2021
In recent years, the government has actively set up computer programming courses to train those with the relevant talent; however, the learning performance of the students is not ideal. Therefore, in order to learn programming skills, students usually adopt note-taking strategies because, due to the pressure of the course, the teachers do not have…
