Debora Lui; Deborah A. Fields; Yasmin B. Kafai – Cognition and Instruction, 2024
Debugging (or troubleshooting) provides a rich context to foster problem-solving. Yet, while we know much about some problems and strategies that novices face in programming on-screen, we know far less about debugging and troubleshooting in the context of physical computing, where coding issues may overlap with materially embedded problems. In…

Webb, Mary; Tracey, Megan; Harwin, William; Tokatli, Ozan; Hwang, Faustina; Johnson, Ros; Barrett, Natasha; Jones, Chris – Education and Information Technologies, 2022
This paper reports on a study which designed and developed a multi-fingered haptic interface in conjunction with a three-dimensional (3D) virtual model of a section of the cell membrane in order to enable students to work collaboratively to learn cell biology. Furthermore, the study investigated whether the addition of haptic feedback to the 3D…

Hang Wei; Rogier Bos; Paul Drijvers – Digital Experiences in Mathematics Education, 2024
In addressing the challenge of fostering functional thinking (FT) in secondary school students, our research centered on the question of how an embodied design can enhance FT's different aspects, including input-output, covariation, and correspondence views. Drawing from embodied cognition theory and focusing on an action- and perception-based…

Sokratis Tselegkaridis; Theodosios Sapounidis; Serafeim A. Triantafyllou – Discover Education, 2025
Nowadays, the educational process is enriched with technological tools such as Arduino and Micro:bit. These tools offer both tangible and graphical interaction, however, widespread adoption by educators faces limitations. Many educators hesitate to utilize them, primarily due to lacking training. Therefore, this study examines educators'…

Xinyue Li – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2023
Digital learning resources are commonly employed to support learning in out-of-class contexts, either as a complement to the learning in formal classrooms or as an alternative that can be used by learners to pursue personal learning goals. This study identified a significant gap in the literature concerning children's use of digital technology to…

Fergusson, Anna; Pfannkuch, Maxine – Mathematical Thinking and Learning: An International Journal, 2022
The advent of data science has led to statistics education researchers re-thinking and expanding their ideas about tools for teaching statistical modeling, such as the use of code-driven tools at the secondary school level. Methods for statistical inference, such as the randomization test, are typically taught within secondary school classrooms…

Fergusson, Anna; Wild, Chris J. – Teaching Statistics: An International Journal for Teachers, 2021
The explosion in availability and variety of data requires learning experiences that reveal more of the data world faster and develop practical skills with digital technologies. Key high-level goals of the International Data Science in Schools Project (IDSSP) include having students continually immersed in the cycle of learning from data, and data…

Lyndsay Grant – Research in Education, 2024
The digitalisation and datafication of education has raised profound questions about the changing role of teachers' educational expertise and agency, as automated processes, data-driven analytics and accountability regimes produce new forms of knowledge and governance. Increasingly, research is paying greater attention to the significant role of…

Salimpour, Saeed; Fitzgerald, Michael T.; Tytler, Russell; Eriksson, Urban – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2021
The changing landscape of science and science education has provided an impetus to re-imagine how science can be taught in schools. The dawn of the Big Data era, especially in astronomy, and the notion of "Science as Practice" are some of the developments driving this need for a re-imagination of science education. This current work…

Eliana Ibrahimi; Fundime Miri; Inva Koçiaj – Journal of Technology and Science Education, 2024
Many studies have recently focused on the importance of the effective integration of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) tools in science education and the need for science teachers to receive adequate training and support to use them effectively. This paper aims to explore the Albanian science teachers' perceptions and use of ICTs in…

Matthew Dorsch – ProQuest LLC, 2024
The shift to online learning management systems such as Canvas seemed to assume students would become more independent and self-regulated, yet little research has been conducted in this area, especially with school-age students. This study examined the ways middle school students engaged with an online learning management system (LMS) and their…

Fergusson, Anna; Pfannkuch, Maxine – Statistics Education Research Journal, 2022
Tasks for teaching predictive modelling and APIs often require learners to use code-driven tools. Minimal research, however, exists about the design of tasks that support the introduction of high school students and teachers to these new statistical and computational methods. Using a design-based research approach, a web-based task was developed.…

Nissen, Jörgen; Stenliden, Linnéa – Journal of Interactive Learning Research, 2020
In these times, described as an ´post-truth´ era where we are faced with information overload, it is a challenge to help students find relevant information, support their knowledge building and engage them in thinking critically about information and knowledge from different perspectives. This study investigates how a visual analytics interface…
