Rich, Kathryn M.; Yadav, Aman; Schwarz, Christina V. – Journal of Technology and Teacher Education, 2019
In order to create professional development experiences, curriculum materials, and policies that support elementary school teachers to embed computational thinking (CT) in their teaching, researchers and teacher educators must understand ways teachers see CT as connecting to their classroom practices. We interviewed 12 elementary school teachers,…

Rohde, Jacqueline; Musselman, Lisa; Benedict, Brianna; Verdin, Dina; Godwin, Allison; Kirn, Adam; Benson, Lisa; Potvin, Geoff – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2019
Contribution: This paper found that design experiences can foster engineering identity and belongingness for early career electrical and computer engineering students. Students had different interpretations of what it meant to be an engineer (identity) and their belongingness in engineering. This paper provides novel insights into how students may…

Herman, Geoffrey L.; Zilles, Craig; Loui, Michael C. – Computer Science Education, 2011
We used both student interviews and diagnostic testing to reveal students' misconceptions about number representations in computing systems. This article reveals that students who have passed an undergraduate level computer organization course still possess surprising misconceptions about positional notations, two's complement representation, and…
