Jamie Sarah Gorson – ProQuest LLC, 2022
While there is high demand for university computer science (CS) courses, students often struggle when learning to program. Prior work has identified that student perceptions of their programming ability may contribute to these challenges. For example, studies show that students often perceive that they do not belong, are not capable of succeeding,…

Manuel T. Rein; Jeroen K. Vermunt; Kim De Roover; Leonie V. D. E. Vogelsmeier – Structural Equation Modeling: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2025
Researchers often study dynamic processes of latent variables in everyday life, such as the interplay of positive and negative affect over time. An intuitive approach is to first estimate the measurement model of the latent variables, then compute factor scores, and finally use these factor scores as observed scores in vector autoregressive…

Rahel Schmid; Robbert Smit; Nicolas Robin; Alexander Strahl – British Journal of Educational Psychology, 2025
Background: Students make many errors in visual programming. In order to learn from these, it is important that students regulate their emotions and view errors as learning opportunities. Aims: This study aimed to explore to what extent momentary emotions, specifically enjoyment, anxiety and boredom, as well as the error learning orientation of…

Gerard Dummer; Elwin Savelsbergh; Paul Drijvers – Informatics in Education, 2025
Programmed control systems are ubiquitous in the present-day world. In current educational practice, however, these systems are hardly being addressed, and little is known about children's spontaneous understandings about such systems. Therefore, we explored pupils' understandings prior to instruction in three concrete settings: a car park, an…

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…

Dag Øivind Østereng – British Journal of Religious Education, 2025
This article, situated in the field of didactics of religion, explores the comprehension of religious education (RE) by the editors of Elevkanalen, a subsidiary of TV2, Norway's most significant commercial public broadcaster. They are a unique media enterprise that provides educational resources for primary and lower secondary schools and is…

Xiner Liu; Andres Felipe Zambrano; Ryan S. Baker; Amanda Barany; Jaclyn Ocumpaugh; Jiayi Zhang; Maciej Pankiewicz; Nidhi Nasiar; Zhanlan Wei – Journal of Learning Analytics, 2025
This study explores the potential of the large language model GPT-4 as an automated tool for qualitative data analysis by educational researchers, exploring which techniques are most successful for different types of constructs. Specifically, we assess three different prompt engineering strategies -- Zero-shot, Few-shot, and Fewshot with…

Yang, Jeong; Lee, Young; Fernandez, Amanda; Sanchez, Joshua – Journal of Cybersecurity Education, Research and Practice, 2020
As the cyber security landscape dynamically evolves and security professionals work to keep apace, modern-day educators face the issue of equipping a new generation for this dynamic landscape. With cyber-attacks and vulnerabilities substantially increased over the past years in frequency and severity, it is important to design and build secure…

Patton, Belinda Andromeda – ProQuest LLC, 2020
The rise in demand for computer programming jobs has created a significant need for computer programming training. Online learning can be an effective tool for meeting the needs of these job demands. The challenge for universities is that computer programming is perceived as a difficult course by many students (Askar & Davenport, 2009; Baser,…

Cansu, Sibel Kiliçarslan; Cansu, Fatih Kürsat – International Journal of Computer Science Education in Schools, 2019
Computers and smart devices have become ubiquitous staples of our lives. Computers and computer-controlled devices are used in all industries from medicine to engineering, and textile production. One field where computers have inevitably spread into is education, and one pre-requisite of controlling computers, or increasing the level and…

Mladenovic, Monika; Boljat, Ivica; Žanko, Žana – Education and Information Technologies, 2018
Novice programmers are facing many difficulties while learning to program. Most studies about misconceptions in programming are conducted at the undergraduate level, yet there is a lack of studies at the elementary school (K-12) level, reasonably because computer science neither programming are regularly still not the part of elementary school…

Reinhart, Alex; Genovese, Christopher R. – Journal of Statistics and Data Science Education, 2021
Traditionally, statistical computing courses have taught the syntax of a particular programming language or specific statistical computation methods. Since Nolan and Temple Lang's seminal paper, we have seen a greater emphasis on data wrangling, reproducible research, and visualization. This shift better prepares students for careers working with…

Mao, Ye; Shi, Yang; Marwan, Samiha; Price, Thomas W.; Barnes, Tiffany; Chi, Min – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2021
As students learn how to program, both their programming code and their understanding of it evolves over time. In this work, we present a general data-driven approach, named "Temporal-ASTNN" for modeling student learning progression in open-ended programming domains. Temporal-ASTNN combines a novel neural network model based on abstract…

Revelo, Oscar Sanchez; Collazos Ordonez, Cesar Alberto; Redondo, Miguel A.; Ibert Bittencourt Santana Pinto, Ig – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2021
The incorporation of collaborative work in the educational field grows day after day, as does the research associated with this topic. One of the most recurring problems faced by teachers who want to employ this learning strategy is the good students' group formation since this task can be complex both conceptually and computationally, especially…
