Despite the elevated importance of Data Science in Statistics, there exists limited research investigating how students learn the computing concepts and skills necessary for carrying out data science tasks. Computer Science educators have investigated how students debug their own code and how students reason through foreign code. While these…

This article reports on a study investigating how computational essays can be used to help students in higher education STEM take up disciplinary epistemic agency--cognitive control and responsibility over one's own learning within the scientific disciplines. Computational essays are a genre of scientific writing that combine live, executable…

This case study describes an experience of using constructivist grounded theory to analyze data. The project investigated how high school students improved their approaches to learning mathematics. Over 4 months, students participated in processes which supported their learning while simultaneously generating data, including interactive writing,…
