Haydon; Karla-Luise Herpoldt; Kandise Van Wormer; Celine Abell; David Baker; Alena Khmelinskaia; Neil P. King – Journal of Chemical Education, 2022
Undergraduate research experiences can improve student success in graduate education and STEM careers. During the COVID-19 pandemic, undergraduate researchers at our institution and many others lost their work-study research positions due to interruption of in-person research activities. This imposed a financial burden on the students and…

Jerše, Gregor; Lokar, Matija – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2017
The emphasis in several courses at technical faculties is on using a computer to perform numerical methods. Instead of focusing on mathematical rigorousness such courses usually concentrate on demonstrating the practical usage of numerical mathematical methods to the students. The practical usage of numerical methods is best learned by exposing…

Malik, Sohail Iqbal; Coldwell-Neilson, Jo – Education and Information Technologies, 2017
High failure and drop-out rates from introductory programming courses continue to be of significant concern to computer science disciplines despite extensive research attempting to address the issue. In this study, we include the three entities of the didactic triangle, instructors, students and curriculum, to explore the learning difficulties…

Ashcraft, Catherine; Eger, Elizabeth K.; Scott, Kimberly A. – Anthropology & Education Quarterly, 2017
Drawing from our two-year ethnography, we juxtapose the experiences of two cohorts in one culturally responsive computing program, examining how the program fostered girls' emerging identities as technosocial change agents. In presenting this in-depth and up-close exploration, we simultaneously identify conditions that both facilitated and limited…

Howard, Cynthia; Di Eugenio, Barbara; Jordan, Pamela; Katz, Sandra – Cognitive Science, 2017
Peer interaction has been found to be conducive to learning in many settings. Knowledge co-construction (KCC) has been proposed as one explanatory mechanism. However, KCC is a theoretical construct that is too abstract to guide the development of instructional software that can support peer interaction. In this study, we present an extensive…

Xia, Belle Selene; Liitiäinen, Elia – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2017
The benefits of using online exercises have been analysed in terms of distance learning, automatic assessment and self-regulated learning. In this study, we have not found a direct proportional relationship between student performance in the course exercises that use online technologies and the exam grades. We see that the average submission rate…

Petkova, Olga – Information Systems Education Journal, 2017
The paper explores relevant past research on service-learning in Information Systems courses since 2000. One of the conclusions from this is that most of the publications are not founded on specific theoretical models and are mainly about sharing instructor or student experiences. Then several theoretical frameworks from Education and other…

Green, Nicholas – ProQuest LLC, 2017
Worked-out examples are a common teaching strategy that aids learners in understanding concepts by use of step-by-step instruction. Literature has shown that they can be extremely beneficial, with a large body of material showing they can provide benefits over regular problem solving alone. This research looks into the viability of using this…

Hinds, Matthew; Baghaei, Nilufar; Ragon, Pedrito; Lambert, Jonathon; Rajakaruna, Tharindu; Houghton, Travers; Dacey, Simon – International Association for Development of the Information Society, 2017
Programming promotes critical thinking, problem solving and analytic skills through creating solutions that can solve everyday problems. However, learning programming can be a daunting experience for a lot of students. "RunJumpCode" is an educational 2D platformer video game, designed and developed in Unity, to teach players the…
