Fowler, Megan; Hallstrom, Jason; Hollingsworth, Joseph; Kraemer, Eileen; Sitaraman, Murali; Sun, Yu-Shan; Wang, Jiadi; Washington, Gloria – Informatics in Education, 2021
Computer science students often evaluate the behavior of the code they write by running it on specific inputs and studying the outputs, and then apply their comprehension to a more general understanding of the code. While this is a good starting point in the student's career, successful graduates must be able to reason analytically about the code…

Dawar, Deepak – Information Systems Education Journal, 2021
Keeping students motivated during an introductory computer programming can be a challenging task. Looking at its varied complexities, many students who are introduced to computer programming for the first time can easily become demotivated. This work looks at the value-expectancy motivational model of student learning and presents our experiences…

Demir, Ömer; Seferoglu, Süleyman Sadi – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2021
Cooperative learning manifests itself as pair programming in coding education. There is a limited number of studies experimentally demonstrating that pair programming is effective in the educational context. Therefore, in this study, solo and pair programming were compared in terms of flow experience, coding quality, and coding achievement. The…

Kvamme, Ole Andreas – Studies in Philosophy and Education, 2021
The Norwegian high-school drama series Skam is produced and published by the Norwegian Broadcasting Corporation, a publicly funded institution distinguished by an explicit obligation to the public interest, not only serving their audience as consumers but even as citizens. Generally, the normativity expressed in Skam may be summarized by treating…

James D. Stevens – ProQuest LLC, 2021
The ability to efficiently optimize or re-optimize an algorithm for high performance on a particular processor architecture is crucial in a wide spectrum of engineering and scientific applications. To help bridge the gap between fully automated optimization, which does not reliably produce optimal code, and fully manual optimization, which is…

Magdalena Bennett – Society for Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2021
Introduction: Differences-in-Differences (DD) is a commonly-used approach in policy evaluation for identifying the impact of an intervention or treatment. Under a parallel trend assumption (PTA), we can recover a causal effect by comparing the difference in outcomes between a treatment and a control group, both before and after an intervention was…

Olivia Mambo Nche – ProQuest LLC, 2021
This research seeks to introduce concepts for programming, a key element of computing, to K-12 students. A central goal is to better understand the benefits of concept-integrated game mechanics in teaching basic programming concepts. The context of this research is also one of broadening participation. Thus the studies have been conducted in…

Iskrenovic-Momcilovic, Olivera – Education and Information Technologies, 2019
This paper examines the effectiveness of programming in pairs in the Scratch environment in primary school. The motivation for tackling this issue is based on the successful use of Scratch as a learning environment for any students of programming. The analysis has shown that that programming in pairs produces better results for beginners in…

Peel, Amanda; Sadler, Troy D.; Friedrichsen, Patricia – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2022
Computing has become essential in modern-day problem-solving, making computational literacy necessary for practicing scientists and engineers. However, K-12 science education has not reflected this computational shift. Integrating computational thinking (CT) into core science courses is an avenue that can build computational literacies in all…

Kusters, Annelies; Fenlon, Jordan – Multilingua: Journal of Cross-Cultural and Interlanguage Communication, 2022
Historically, fictional productions which use sign language have often begun with scripts that use the written version of a spoken language. This can be a challenge for deaf actors as they must translate the written word to a performed sign language text. Here, we explore script development in "Small World," a television comedy which…
