Lan Hong – Education and Information Technologies, 2024
Educational robots have unrivaled advantages and value in developing students' computational thinking. Currently, there are fewer studies on the overall effects of educational robots on K12 students' computational thinking, especially at the instructional style and cross-grade level. In order to investigate the overall effect of educational robots…

Krause, Gladys H.; Vanderberg, Maggie; E. Hung, Eping; Skuratowicz, Eva – Education and Information Technologies, 2023
Our study documents how a Spanish-English bilingual elementary teacher learned computational thinking while working to incorporate it into mathematics and language arts lessons in a bilingual classroom. We classified the elements of the teacher's process into two practices: intentional and unintentional use of computational thinking. Intentional…

Lung-Chun Chang; Hon-Ren Lin; Jian-Wei Lin – Education and Information Technologies, 2024
Many students want to enroll in programming courses but fear the challenges ahead. They aspire to design quality systems or games after acquiring related skills but report concerns that programming logic is too difficult to learn because memorization of the syntax is required. Thus, they experience anxiety, are demotivated to learn, and,…

Zitouniatis, Athanasios; Lazarinis, Fotis; Kanellopoulos, Dimitris – Education and Information Technologies, 2023
This paper proposes a scenario-based learning (SBL) methodology for teaching Computational Thinking (CT). The presented scenario includes educational material that teaches the basic concepts of a Python course for beginners. The scenario allows the educator to utilize a combination of tools and services and follow a mind map. Moreover, it presents…

Lou Schwartz; Valérie Maquil; Laurence Johannsen; Christian Moll; Johannes Hermen – Education and Information Technologies, 2024
Computational Thinking (CT) is an emerging topic in school curricula. Different tools exist to support the learning of CT, namely visual programming languages and tangible development platforms (TDP), which are widely used in extra-curricular activities. To date, few tools have been developed that consider both teachers' needs and the school…
