Nitchot, Athitaya; Gilbert, Lester; Wettayaprasit, Wiphada – Education and Information Technologies, 2021
Information and Communication Technology (ICT) has been adopted in Thailand for learning and teaching within higher education, where ClassStart, Moodle, and Learn Square have been commonly used. In this research, a conceptual model of competence is proposed as a learner's capability with respect to subject matter, and based on this model a tool is…

Unahalekhaka, Apittha; Bers, Marina Umaschi – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2021
With a growing number of ScratchJr usage, over 19 million users worldwide, we examined the use in the United States of the free ScratchJr programming language, explicitly designed for young children ages 5-7, to learn how to code. Our objective was to explore children's usage of the ScratchJr tablet app at home and school settings. We analyzed…

Rich, Peter J.; Larsen, Ross A.; Mason, Stacie L. – Journal of Research on Technology in Education, 2021
This study sought to identify factors that affect teachers' beliefs about teaching computing in their classrooms. By reviewing existing scales and research on computing, we created the Teacher Beliefs about Coding and Computational Thinking (TBaCCT) scale. Through confirmatory factor analysis and structural equation modeling we validated the scale…

Balaton, Mariana; Cavadas, Jorge; Carvalho, Paulo Simeão; Lima, J. J. G. – Physics Education, 2021
Experimental teaching is essential for a good understanding of science, especially on Physics. Practical activities play an important role for engaging students with science, mainly when they interact directly with equipment, collect experimental data with computers and/or use interactive software for data analysis. In this work, we present the…

Neutens, Tom; Barbion, Evelien; Coolsaet, Kris; wyffels, Francis – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2021
In the last few years, programming, computational thinking, and robotics are more frequently integrated into elementary education. This integration can be done in many different ways. However, it is still unclear which teaching methods work in which situations. To provide some clarity in this area, we compared two methods of integrating…

Chen Sun – ProQuest LLC, 2021
Computational thinking (CT) is an essential 21st century skill for people to succeed in the increasingly technological (and interconnected) world. Researchers have explored different interventions to teach students CT skills (e.g., Scratch and robotics), but digital game-based learning is relatively under-researched. A critical issue to address in…

Velázquez-Iturbide, J. Ángel; Hernán-Losada, Isidoro; Paredes-Velasco, Maximiliano – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2017
An increase in student motivation is often cited as an expected effect of software visualization, but, as far as the authors are aware, no controlled experiments have yet demonstrated this. This paper therefore presents a controlled evaluation of this effect, conducted within the framework of self-determination theory. Students were tasked with…

Today's data-driven world requires earth and environmental scientists to have skills at the intersection of domain and data science. These skills are imperative to harness information contained in a growing volume of complex data to solve the world's most pressing environmental challenges. Despite the importance of these skills, Earth and…

Xinogalos, Stelios – ACM Transactions on Computing Education, 2015
The Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) technique is nowadays the most popular programming technique among tertiary education institutions. However, learning OOP is a cognitively demanding task for undergraduate students. Several difficulties and misconceptions have been recorded in the literature for both OOP concepts and languages, mainly Java.…

Barrett, Michelle D.; van der Linden, Wim J. – Journal of Educational Measurement, 2017
Linking functions adjust for differences between identifiability restrictions used in different instances of the estimation of item response model parameters. These adjustments are necessary when results from those instances are to be compared. As linking functions are derived from estimated item response model parameters, parameter estimation…
