Exploring the Effectiveness and Moderators of Block-Based Visual Programming on Student Learning: A Meta-Analysis
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Hu, Yue; Chen, Cheng-Huan; Su, Chien-Yuan – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2021
Block-based visual programming tools, such as Scratch, Alice, and MIT App Inventor, provide an intuitive and easy-to-use editing interface through which to promote programming learning for novice students of various ages. However, very little attention has been paid to investigating these tools' overall effects on students' academic achievement…

Wetzel, Jon; VanLehn, Kurt; Butler, Dillan; Chaudhari, Pradeep; Desai, Avaneesh; Feng, Jingxian; Grover, Sachin; Joiner, Reid; Kong-Sivert, Mackenzie; Patade, Vallabh; Samala, Ritesh; Tiwari, Megha; van de Sande, Brett – Interactive Learning Environments, 2017
This paper describes Dragoon, a simple intelligent tutoring system which teaches the construction of models of dynamic systems. Modelling is one of seven practices dictated in two new sets of educational standards in the U.S.A., and Dragoon is one of the first systems for teaching model construction for dynamic systems. Dragoon can be classified…

Languages, Literacies and Literate Programming: Can We Use the Latest Theories on How Bilingual People Learn to Help Us Teach Computational Literacies?
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Vogel, Sara; Hoadley, Christopher; Castillo, Ana Rebeca; Ascenzi-Moreno, Laura – Computer Science Education, 2020
Background and Context: In this theory paper, we explore the concept of translanguaging from bilingual education, and its implications for teaching and learning programming and computing in especially computer science (CS) for all initiatives. Objective: We use translanguaging to examine how programming is and isn't like using human languages. We…

Examining Learners' Perspective of Taking a MOOC: Reasons, Excitement, and Perception of Usefulness
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Liu, M.; Kang, J.; McKelroy, E. – Educational Media International, 2015
In recent years, massive open online Courses (MOOCs) as an online instruction format have attracted educators' attention in higher education. While there are many news reports and blog entries about MOOCs, evidence-based research is still emerging. Research examining the learners' perspective on taking a MOOC is scarce but very much needed. This…

Holding Students Accountable in Team Projects
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Mentzer, Nathan – Technology and Engineering Teacher, 2014
This article describes an efficient peer evaluation process that can be implemented at the middle and high school levels, and that holds students accountable for their individual contributions in a team-based project. Teachers faced with this challenge will welcome the web-based peer-evaluation interface that was capable of soliciting student…

A Behavior-Based Approach for Educational Robotics Activities
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
De Cristoforis, P.; Pedre, S.; Nitsche, M.; Fischer, T.; Pessacg, F.; Di Pietro, C. – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2013
Educational robotics proposes the use of robots as a teaching resource that enables inexperienced students to approach topics in fields unrelated to robotics. In recent years, these activities have grown substantially in elementary and secondary school classrooms and also in outreach experiences to interest students in science, technology,…
