Loftus, Mary; Madden, Michael G. – Teaching in Higher Education, 2020
How do we teach and learn with our students about data literacy, at the same time as Biesta (2015) calls for an emphasis on 'subjectification' i.e. 'the coming into presence of unique individual beings'? (Good Education in an Age of Measurement: Ethics, Politics, Democracy. Routledge) Our response to these challenges and the datafication of higher…

Maruyama, Yukiko; Kanoh, Hiroko; Adachi, Kinya – International Association for Development of the Information Society, 2017
To investigate parents' concerns about programming education in primary school, a preliminary online survey was carried out as a first step of the study. The result of the survey shows that parents seem to think that aim of programming education in primary school is not only learning coding. [For the complete proceedings, see ED579395.]

Dowdall, Shane; Hlobaz, Artur; Milczarski, Piotr; O'Reilly, Derek; Podlaski, Krzysztof; Stawska, Zofia – Informatics in Education, 2021
The development of communication and other soft skills among computer science students is not usually an easy task. Often, curricula focus on technical skills, with team projects being used for the improvement of communication skills. However, these teams usually comprise solely of computer science students. In this paper, we present a didactical…
