Melissa T. A. Simarmata; Gwo-Guang Lee; Hoky Ajicahyadi; Kung-Jeng Wang – Education and Information Technologies, 2024
Teaching computer programming language remotely presents particular difficulties due to its requirement for abstract and logical thinking. There is a dearth of research specifically examining the potential factors that determine student performance when distance self-learning is conducted for programming language education. This study aims to…

Walter Gander – Informatics in Education, 2024
When the new programming language Pascal was developed in the 1970's, Walter Gander did not like it because because many features which he appreciated in prior programming languages were missing in Pascal. For example the block structure was gone, there were no dynamical arrays, no functions or procedures were allowed as parameters of a procedure,…

Karnalim, Oscar; Simon; Chivers, William – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2023
We have recently developed an automated approach to reduce students' rationalization of programming plagiarism and collusion by informing them about the matter and reporting uncommon similarities to them for each of their submissions. Although the approach has benefits, it does not greatly engage students, which might limit those benefits. To…

Rahaman, Md. Afzalur; Hoque, Abu Sayed Md. Latiful – International Journal of Learning Technology, 2022
For the last decades, programming courses are being taught in nearly every educational sector. Students are now more likely to use an e-learning platform compared to traditional system because of lower internet costs, remote access, and faster communication facilities. For a programming course studied in both manual and e-learning platforms,…

Shindler, Michael; Pinpin, Natalia; Markovic, Mia; Reiber, Frederick; Kim, Jee Hoon; Carlos, Giles Pierre Nunez; Dogucu, Mine; Hong, Mark; Luu, Michael; Anderson, Brian; Cote, Aaron; Ferland, Matthew; Jain, Palak; LaBonte, Tyler; Mathur, Leena; Moreno, Ryan; Sakuma, Ryan – Computer Science Education, 2022
Background and Context: We replicated and expanded on previous work about how well students learn dynamic programming, a difficult topic for students in algorithms class. Their study interviewed a number of students at one university in a single term. We recruited a larger sample size of students, over several terms, in both large public and…

Fegely, Alex; Tang, Hengtao – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2022
The purpose of this convergent mixed-methods study was to evaluate the effect of educational robotics on pre-service teachers' programming comprehension and motivation. Computer science is increasingly being integrated into K-8 curricula. However, a shortage of teachers trained to teach basic computer science concepts remains unresolved. This…

Joe Michael Allen – ProQuest LLC, 2021
A well-run introductory CS1 course is essential for all students within CS education. CS1 is necessary to keep students in the major and important to attract non-majors to the CS field. Unfortunately, there are many well-known issues that most CS1 courses have in common: high drop rates, low retention, high student stress, student struggle,…

Peidi Gu; Zui Cheng; Cheng Miaoting; John Poggio; Yan Dong – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2025
Background: Today, the importance of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) education and training is widely recognised and accepted. Computer programming courses have become essential in higher education to nurture students' programming, analysis and computational skills, which are vital for success in all STEM fields and areas.…

Wendy Haw; Adam Crawford – Journal of Learning Development in Higher Education, 2025
This article illustrates the potential for hackathons to serve as an innovative educational tool in addressing the underrepresentation of minority communities in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) fields. Using Merced, California--a region recognised for its agricultural economy, socioeconomic disparities, and diverse…

Carina Büscher – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2025
Computational thinking (CT) is becoming increasingly important as a learning content. Subject-integrated approaches aim to develop CT within other subjects like mathematics. The question is how exactly CT can be integrated and learned in mathematics classrooms. In a case study involving 12 sixth-grade learners, CT activities were explored that…

Dan Sun; Fan Xu – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2025
Real-time collaborative programming (RCP), which allows multiple programmers to work concurrently on the same codebase with changes instantly visible to all participants, has garnered considerable popularity in higher education. Despite this trend, little work has rigorously examined how undergraduates engage in collaborative programming when…

Robin Samuelsson – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2025
Programming is becoming a key subject in early education globally, with surging problems of how computer science can become a subject for children of all ages and backgrounds. Problems of implementing new technologies in the old curricula have long been noted, and lately, concern over computer science education goals is often too narrow and…

Today, due to the size of many genomes and the increasingly large sizes of sequencing files, independently analyzing sequencing data is largely impossible for a biologist with little to no programming expertise. As such, biologists are typically faced with the dilemma of either having to spend a significant amount of time and effort to learn how…

Pruthikrai Mahatanankoon; James R. Wolf – Journal of Information Systems Education, 2025
Advances in information and communication technologies (ICT) coupled with artificial intelligence have made computer programming skills indispensable for IT majors and for an increasing number of other science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) disciplines. Like any hands-on skill, mastering computer programming requires dedicated…

Yoonhee Shin; Jaewon Jung; Hyun Ji Lee – Metacognition and Learning, 2024
This study investigated the effects of concept-oriented faded in worked-out examples (WOE) and metacognitive scaffolding on learners' transfer performance and motivation in programming education. Two types of faded in WOE and metacognitive scaffolding were provided. A total of 140 participants were randomly assigned into one of four groups, with…
