This article presents design principles and practical steps for web-based Q methodology surveys. Drawing on the experience of two online Q studies, we discuss theoretical concerns, sort and survey design, software programs, and issues in researcher-participant engagement. We argue that opening Q methodology to online modes of data collection is…

For a long time, research on individuals learning in digital environments was primarily based on cognitive-oriented theories. This paper aims at providing evidence that social processes affect individual learning with digital materials. Based on these theories and empirical results, a social-processes-augmented theory is suggested: the…

The daily influence of new technologies on shaping and reshaping human lives necessitates attention to the ethical development of the future computing workforce. To improve computer science students' ethical decision-making, it is important to know how they make decisions when they face ethical issues. This article contributes to the research and…

This paper has designed a professional and practical SIMD computer mathematical model based on the SIMD physical machine model combined with the variable addition method. Furthermore, the model is applied in image collection, processing, and display operations, and a SIMD data parallel image processing system is finally established by absorbing…

This study aims to show how digital youth leadership and activism on climate change has developed, what type of online discourse the movement has managed to channel in the fight against climate change and, above all, why the recently emerged #FridaysForFuture movement has succeeded, and not the classic adult environmental movement. The goals of…

Computing is rapidly becoming a critical literacy for succeeding in an increasingly technological world. While the proliferation of programs dedicated to broadening participation in computing increases access, computing education research can benefit from more directly drawing on current interest development theory to improve interventions that…

Idiograms are graphical representations in which chromosomes appear ordered by their relative size, homology groups, and the presence of cytogenetic landmarks such as centromeres, secondary constrictions, and banding patterns. They have become crucial elements in cytogenetic research. Here, we describe a simple protocol for spreadsheet software to…

The purpose of the study is to reveal the relationship between teachers' lifelong learning tendencies and digital literacy levels. Both single and correlational survey designs from the quantitative research models were employed. To determine the study group, convenience case sampling was used by considering the Covid-19 pandemic and a total of 322…

We propose an original machine that traces conics and some transcendental curves (oblique trajectories of confocal conics) by the solution of inverse tangent problems. For such a machine, we also provide the 3D-printable model to be used as an intriguing supplement for geometry, calculus, or ordinary differential equations classes.

The aim of this study is to examine middle school students' perceptions of information technology self-efficacy and their attitudes towards coding according to various variables and to determine the difference between secondary school students' perceptions of information technology self-efficacy and their attitudes towards coding. The study was…

This paper explores assessment approaches within the unique context of Extended Reality (XR) learning environments, which offer immersive and contextualized experiences. Focusing on STEM disciplines, the paper presents four distinctive XR-based assessment cases, exploring the discipline, context, purpose, and results of each. These insights aim to…

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,…

Behavioural psychology is to connect our minds and activities. Our intentions and actions must be such that they do not affect others. Education is changing to digital education so we force to act with good behaviour. Nowadays, text mining is to be challenged for educationists. This paper addresses the ethical behaviour of avoiding text mining in…

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…

Computer-based testing of humanities students has some inconveniences and difficulties, where the whole learning process is practically based on communicative methods. In this regard, one needs such a testing system, which would allow one to ask open-ended questions, and students would be able to enter detailed answers. Despite the popularity of…
