This paper explored the attitudes and roles of computer science (CS) teachers in elementary and high schools in Croatia in the period from completely online to "normal" schooling. The research was conducted in two phases to gain insight into the adaption of online education in schools. The first part of the research was a quantitative…

There is substantial evidence that incorporating interactive environments for game-based instruction has a significant potential to support the development of computational thinking and programming skills in primary education students. However, it is not clear whether a simulation game (SG) with different user interface elements, created via…

Artificial intelligence (AI) in programming teaching is something that still has to be explored, since in this area assessment tools that allow grading the students work are the most common ones, but there are not many tools aimed toward providing feedback to the students in the process of creating their program. In this work a small sized…

The increasing technology reliance in today's world has amplified the need for cybersecurity education for all. Hence, initiatives regarding the integration of cybersecurity education within the pre-college level have begun to emerge in recent times. However, limited research exists regarding in-service or pre-service teachers' perspectives on…

Aim/Purpose: This study aims to investigate the perceptions of programming instructors among the Information Technology faculty members at AL al-Bayt University regarding the effectiveness of ChatGPT in supporting the programming instructional process. This study also aims to explore their experiences concerning the potential benefits and adverse…

In this study, a predictive model is constructed to analyze learners' performance in programming tasks using data of programming behavioral events and behavioral sequences. First, this study identifies behavioral events from log data and applies lag sequence analysis to extract behavioral sequences that reflect learners' programming strategies.…

In this article, the authors explore how the 3C Model can be used to integrate other curriculum areas with mathematics, namely digital technologies. To illustrate the model, they provide a practical example of a teaching sequence. T he 3C Model is designed to create opportunities for applying reasoning and problem-solving skills and learning…

Background: Numerous higher education institutions worldwide have adopted English-language-medium computer science courses and integrated online problem-solving competitions to bridge gaps in theory and practice (Alhamami "Education and Information Technologies," 2021; 26: 6549-6562). Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the…

This study analyzed collaborative invention projects by teams of lower-secondary (13-14-year-old) Finnish students. In invention projects, student teams design and make materially embodied collaborative inventions using traditional and digital fabrication technologies. This investigation focused on the student teams' knowledge creation processes…

Microlearning is a modern learning modality that has been adopted in recent years for student education. This study aimed to reveal the effect of video-based microlearning on the development of programming skills and technology acceptance among intermediate school students. The study used a quasi-experimental design for two groups. A technology…

The academic success of first-year students' learning in science faculties is by no means assured, especially in an Open Distance Learning setting with its limited number of face-to-face encounters between students and lecturers or tutors. Therefore, such encounters should be highly efficient in view of the considerable amount of knowledge…

This study explores the relationship between students' affective states and their interactions with educational videos. While video-based learning has become increasingly popular, it is important to understand the emotional and behavioral dynamics that influence learning outcomes. Using a qualitative content analysis approach, data were collected…

The rapid development of technology has led changes in educational paradigms in many areas of daily life. With this change, the integration of technology into educational environments and the organization of resources and processes have gained more importance. This situation reveals the need for educational technologies. There is a need for…

This study aims to examine the structures that affect the teaching motivation of in-service teachers. In this context, self-efficacy in teaching computational thinking and professional identity have been focused on. To that end, the relational screening model has been used. A demographic information form and three different scales were used to…

In recent times, there has been a growing interest in enhancing recommendation systems for e-learning platforms to deliver a personalised learning experience that meets each learner's distinct requirements and preferences. Nevertheless, it is crucial to recognise the ethical considerations surrounding this technology, as it heavily relies on…
