Xuemin Gao; Yuqin Yang; Yuxia Du; Daner Sun – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2025
Block-based visual programming tools are widely used in elementary education. Nonetheless, these tools alone may not ensure the spontaneous and efficient acquisition of concepts and skills in computational thinking (CT). Using mind mapping as a form of scaffolding to facilitate the visualization of abstract thinking processes may enhance the…

Yan Sun; Jamie Dyer; Jonathan Harris – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2024
This study was grounded in the spatial computational thinking model developed by the "3D Weather" project funded by the NSF STEM+C program. The model reflects a discipline-based perspective towards computational thinking and captures the spatial nature of computational thinking in meteorology and the reliance of computational thinking on…
