This study explored whether the computational thinking skills of early elementary-aged students be positively impacted by participation in a robotics-based, classroom intervention. Action research was used to examine the impact of a multifaceted, constructionist, robotics-based intervention on 37 second and third grade students at an elementary…

The real-time graphing of simple harmonic motion of mass on springs with an Arduino based on an experiment set for teaching and learning physics in high schools where students can learn from real experiences. The objectives of this study are to create and develop a real-time measurement for vertical oscillations of mass on springs using the…

The growing interest in the use of digital games for education resulted in the expansion of the field of game-based learning. There have been several research on the perceptions and attitudes of students towards the use of games for learning. These studies have tried to understand what students make of the use of digital games for learning, as it…

The article focuses on the Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPCK or TPACK) framework among in-service music teachers in primary schools. Narrative research has allowed us to identify the environment and important others that lead to the release and maintenance of sparks of interest in using technology within various educational models…

Background: Process data, data generated by a user's interaction with a web-based application, is an emerging tool in educational research. The current study explores using process data as a measure of implementation fidelity to a randomized control trial (RCT) of the Read It Again Mobile (RIA-M) curricular supplement. Objectives: To determine the…

The 2017 reform of the Swedish national curriculum requires that all compulsory school mathematics and technology teachers integrate programming into their teaching.
