This article explores the features of students' reasoning and sense-making when computer programming and mathematics interact, specifically, using the exterior angle concept to make different regular polygons with Scratch as a programming tool. At the end of the 2019 spring term in a public elementary school, data were obtained from a pretest, a…

This study reports an impact assessment of the basic Arduino programming training conducted among select Junior High School Students in a National High School in Cagayan De Oro City. The Focus Group Discussion sessions and survey questionnaires via goggle form complemented the content of the impact study table. The researchers aimed to determine…

The information professions demand digitally literate practitioners who can navigate the increasingly complex technological environments of libraries and archives. While basic literacy is presumed among graduate students, many students express fear and anxiety when approaching new technologies. These psychological barriers have not been addressed…

The purposes of the current study were to examine the effectiveness of the multimedia computer-based lessons on programming with Scratch in Technology integrated with the TGT cooperative learning technique based on the 80/80 efficiency criterion, to compare the learning achievement of Grade 7 students between those taught using multimedia…

Because of the rapid expansion of computer science (CS) education, educational leaders must consider how to recruit, prepare, and support teachers who typically do not have a background in CS. This study examines two professional development (PD) approaches used to introduce CS education to non-CS teachers. We aim to understand if/how each model…

Background: Even among women who persist in the gender-imbalanced engineering fields, women on engineering design teams tend to take on non-technical roles. Understanding the mechanisms that inform this phenomenon is important for encouraging more women in STEM in order to close the gender gap. Although factors such as self-efficacy, task…

Background and Context: To offer more experiences in the field, our study employed secondary school pre-service teachers as assistants in courses for secondary school students learning computer coding with the help of smart textiles. Objective: Did pre-service teachers assisting in CS courses have more highly developed pedagogical content…

Dashboards have become a crucial element of contemporary business operation and management; therefore, it is desirable for business students to acquire knowledge of them. This article investigates the effectiveness of designing learning activities around investment dashboards in the context of introductory business analytics (IBA) courses. We…

The aim of this study is to evaluate the 10th grade robotics coding curriculum (2020) with a participant-oriented program evaluation approach. The research was designed with the convergent mixed methods design. This design is the most well-known mixed research design, whereby both qualitative and quantitative data are collected simultaneously. 60…

The impact of cognitive biases, particularly biased self-assessment, on learning outcomes and decision-making in higher education is of great significance. This study delves into the confluence of cognitive biases and user experience in spreadsheet programming as a crucial IT skill across various academic disciplines. Through a quantitative…

Recently scientists have underscored a significant mismatch between the latest theoretical Computational Thinking conceptualizations as an upcoming literacy that goes beyond computer science, and its operationalizations in current empirical research and designs, which are limited to coding-centred and domain-specific tools and approaches. To…

This study builds on a recent systematic mapping of computing education literature by conducting an in-depth qualitative analysis of selected studies on group work in Project-Based Learning (PjBL), published between 2010 and 2021. We examined how prominent theoretical frameworks are used in this context. We found that frameworks were often applied…

Contract cheating is a significant concern in higher education, requiring a multifaceted teaching and learning approach to address it. Quizzing students about their writing to promote engagement, confirm authorship and detect cheating has not yet been investigated systematically. Therefore, in this study, our objective was to explore the validity…

Background/purpose: This study investigates how knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) influence cybersecurity awareness (CSA) among students in Thai educational institutions. The research addresses regional disparities in cybersecurity readiness by incorporating a culturally responsive adaptation of the KAP model. Materials/methods: A…

This study explores the integration of game play into an inclusive, hands-on computing project in Calculus class. The project is focused on designing and analyzing priority switches for applications competing for computational resources on embedded devices such as smart watches and tablets. By engaging students in real-world problem-solving…
