Computational Identity and Programming Empowerment of Students in Computational Thinking Development
Kong, Siu-Cheung; Lai, Ming – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2022
The participatory view of learning emphasises students' identity construction. However, identity research in the context of programming education to cultivate students' computational thinking is scarce. In this study, an instrument of computational identity with components of engagement, imagination and affiliation, was developed and validated.…

Ballard, Evan David; Haroldson, Rachelle – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2022
As schools and districts across the United States adopt computer science standards and curriculum for K-12 computer science education, they look to integrate the foundational concepts of computational thinking (CT) into existing core subjects of elementary-age students. Research has shown the effectiveness of teaching CT elements (abstraction,…

Vincenti, Giovanni – Informatics in Education, 2022
Preparing students for the workforce is a balancing act that involves theory, practice, and assessment. As students navigate an educational experience that is, however, often distant from real-world needs, it is imperative that academia finds a novel way to bridge the gap. As many organizations utilize open challenges to attract ideas and talent,…

Ubaidah, Ubaidah; Loeis, Minaldi – Journal of Educational Research and Practice, 2022
The objective of this research is to describe the implementation of project-based learning (PJBL) in improving computer programming competency in a higher education setting. The method applied in this study is action research with a one-cycle framework with four phases of development: (a) planning, (b) action, (c) observing, and (d) reflection…

Atiq, Zahra; Loui, Michael C. – ACM Transactions on Computing Education, 2022
In introductory computer programming courses, students experience a range of emotions. Students often experience anxiety and frustration when they encounter difficulties in writing programs. Continued frustration can discourage students from pursuing engineering and computing careers. Although prior research has shown how emotions affect students'…

Coto, Mayela; Mora, Sonia; Grass, Beatriz; Murillo-Morera, Juan – Computer Science Education, 2022
Background and context: Emotions are ubiquitous in academic settings and affect learning strategies, motivation to persevere, and academic outcomes, however they have not figured prominently in research on learning to program at the university level. Objective: To summarize the current knowledge available on the effect of emotions on students…

Çakiroglu, Ünal; Çevik, Isak – Education and Information Technologies, 2022
In order to teach Computational Thinking (CT) skills to young students, Block-Based Programming Environments (BBPEs) are integrated into secondary school computer science (CS) education curricula. As a CT skill, abstraction is one of the prominent skills, which is difficult to enhance and measure. Researchers developed some scales for measuring…

Polat, Elif; Yilmaz, Rabia Meryem – Education and Information Technologies, 2022
The aim of this study is to compare the effects of unplugged and plugged-in activities on academic achievement and computational thinking (CT) skills of sixth-grade students. Mixed-method research was carried out to explore whether there were differences between the groups, and to learn the students' opinions and experiences regarding the…

Chen, Ken-Zen; Chi, Hsiao-Han – Interactive Learning Environments, 2022
The purpose of the qualitative study was to investigate experiences of first-time board-game users (29 elementary school students) in playing "Coding Ocean" (CO) to learn computational thinking. CO was a two-team strategy board game and was designed for children developing basic understanding of computational thinking. Participation…

Bayar, Mirac Furkan; Tas, Yasemin – Alberta Journal of Educational Research, 2022
This study aimed to investigate the effects of robotic coding supported Design-Based Science Instruction (RC-DBSI) on sixth-grade students' science process skills. One-group pretest-posttest experimental design was employed in the study. Participants consisted of thirty-nine sixth-grade students enrolled in a public middle school located in the…

Fowler, Max; Smith, David H., IV; Hassan, Mohammed; Poulsen, Seth; West, Matthew; Zilles, Craig – Computer Science Education, 2022
Background and Context: Lopez and Lister first presented evidence for a skill hierarchy of code reading, tracing, and writing for introductory programming students. Further support for this hierarchy could help computer science educators sequence course content to best build student programming skill. Objective: This study aims to replicate a…

Rizk, Nadya; McKenzie, Matt; Samrout, Marya – Teaching Science, 2022
Coding is a process often associated with computers. Nevertheless, coding is a thought process that can be mastered even without a computer. In NSW, primary students are introduced to computational and algorithmic thinking as early as Stage 1. Yet, teaching coding to young students is not always easy for teachers, mostly because the process is…
