McCartney, Robert; Boustedt, Jonas; Eckerdal, Anna; Sanders, Kate; Thomas, Lynda; Zander, Carol – ACM Transactions on Computing Education, 2016
In this article, we address the question of why computing students choose to learn computing topics on their own. A better understanding of why some students choose to learn on their own may help us to motivate other students to develop this important skill. In addition, it may help in curriculum design; if we need to leave some topics out of our…
