Erik Tillema; Joseph Antonides – Investigations in Mathematics Learning, 2024
The multiplication principle (MP) is foundational for combinatorial problem-solving. From a units-coordination perspective, applying the MP with justification entails establishing unit relationships between the number of options at each independent stage of a counting process and the total number of combinatorial outcomes. Existing research…

Marcella Mandanici; Simone Spagnol – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2024
The purpose of this study is to look at how a music programming course affects the development of computational thinking in undergraduate music conservatory students. In addition to teaching the fundamentals of computational thinking, music programming, and logic, the course addresses the Four C's of education. The change in students' attitudes…

Eunsung Park; Jongpil Cheon – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2025
Debugging is essential for identifying and rectifying errors in programming, yet time constraints and students' trivialization of errors often hinder progress. This study examines differences in debugging challenges and strategies among students with varying computational thinking (CT) competencies using weekly coding journals from an online…

Mark McCartney – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2024
Four variations of the Koch curve are presented. In each case, the similarity dimension, area bounded by the fractal and its initiator, and volume of revolution about the initiator are calculated. A range of classroom exercises are proved to allow students to investigate the fractals further.

Diamond, Harvey – PRIMUS, 2023
This paper presents a series of basic computational problems that are mathematically and/or graphically appealing, and provides an idea of places one might go in trying to understand what is happening, integrating mathematics, computation, and graphics. The real point of this paper is to make a case, through those examples, for computation as an…

Tian Li; Gaomin Sun; Xinlin Zhou; Tengfei Wang – Educational Psychology, 2023
The close relationship between working memory and maths problem solving is generally accepted, but the specifics of how working memory and its subcomponents contribute to maths problem solving remain poorly understood. Tests of working memory, maths problem problem solving, calculation, and intelligence were administered to 246 university…

Li, Qiang; Liu, Ze-xue; Wang, Peng; Wang, Jing-jing; Luo, Tian – Education and Information Technologies, 2023
Computational thinking (CT) and design thinking (DT) are critical tools for students to improve their problem-solving abilities. CT is most commonly used in science and technology fields such as computer science and mathematics, whereas DT is more commonly used in the design field. This study evaluates the impact of art programming education on…

Hansen, Nils Kristian; Hadjerrouit, Said – International Association for Development of the Information Society, 2023
This paper aims at using a Use-Modify-Create approach to explore students' mathematical problem solving by means of computational thinking (CT) and programming activities. The data collection method is participant observation, in which the researcher also has the role as teacher, guiding the group activities. In our study, two groups of students…

Benjamin Tatira – Mathematics Teaching Research Journal, 2024
Solving systems of linear equations is a core concept in linear algebra and a wide variety of problems found in the sciences and engineering can be formulated as linear equations. This study sought to explore undergraduate students' development of the schema for solving systems of linear equations. The triad framework was used to describe the…

Muchsini, Binti; Siswandari; Gunarhadi; Wiranto – Cogent Education, 2023
Computational thinking is seen as a basic and essential skill in the 21st century, but its development issue in accounting education is still relatively limited. Therefore, anchored in Wing's (2006) computational thinking theory, this study makes a case for developing problem-solving skills, which involve abstraction, decomposition,…

McCoy, Bradley K. – Physics Teacher, 2021
In a typical first physics class, homework consists of problems in which numerical values for physical quantities are given and the desired answer is a number with appropriate units. In contrast, most calculations in upper-division undergraduate physics are entirely symbolic. Despite the need to learn symbolic manipulation, students are often…

Ting-Ting Wu; Lusia Maryani Silitonga; Budi Dharmawan; Astrid Tiara Murti – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2024
The relationship between computational thinking (CT) and academic self-efficacy for building students' academic resilience--a trait crucial for problem-solving, peer relationships, and confidence development--was investigated. A mixed-methods approach was employed in a study involving 60 participants; half were given CT instruction and half were…
