There is a growing consensus that AI literacy requires a holistic lens, including not only technical knowledge and skills but also social and ethical considerations. Yet, providing holistic AI education for upper-primary students remains challenging due to the abstract and complex nature of AI and a lack of pedagogical experiences in schools.…

This multiple case study aimed to investigate ESL teachers' practices when they learn and design their ESL lesson activities, with a particular emphasis on the integration of computational thinking through Scratch. Scratch was considered as the computational thinking platform, and teachers were designers of language instruction with/for…

Focusing efficiently on potential weaknesses in the validity argument of writing assessments--such as writing subjectivity, content coverage, criteria vagueness, and raters' incompetence--has been shown to positively enhance teachers' overall writing assessment competence (AC). In this study, we propose a computational bootstrapping model of…

Increasing access to computational ideas and practices is one important reason to integrate computational thinking (CT) in science classrooms. While integrating CT into science classrooms broadens exposure to computing, it may not be enough to ensure equitable participation in the science classroom. Equitable participation is crucial because…

The purpose of this analysis was to describe cognitive processes associated with comorbid difficulty between word reading (WR) and mathematics computation (MC) at the start of first grade among children selected for WR and MC delays. A sample of 234 U.S. children (mean age 6.50 years, SD = 0.31) was assessed on WR, MC, core cognitive processes…

Purpose: This study investigates the mathematics performance of "Orang Asli" pupils across two cognitive domains--Knowing and Applying--using three oral mathematics tests developed in different languages: the academic language ("Bahasa Melayu") (OBM), the academic native language ("Bahasa Semai") (OSL), and the tribal…

Teaching computational thinking skills to novice college students via programming poses considerable challenges. It involves learning programming language syntax and commands, along with fostering higher-order skills crucial for both computational thinking proficiency and future careers. To address this, we proposed a pedagogical approach…

Despite the increasing integration of technology in early childhood education, empirical research on the effectiveness of Web 2.0-based numeracy learning remains limited, particularly in developing countries. This study investigates the impact of a Web 2.0-based Numeracy Education Program on first-grade students' numeracy skills using a…

Background: Teaching programming and computational thinking is becoming a major issue in many education systems. Numerous approaches are possible, but very few studies compare these different ways of implementing programming and computational thinking learning. Objectives: We compared three ways of teaching programming and computational thinking…

Worldwide, the importance of computational thinking (CT) and its integration into the educational process at all levels of education has been highlighted as a fundamental skill for all. Nowadays, there is strong research interest in the integration of CT into curricula as early as kindergarten. As kindergarten teachers play a key role in this…

The development of digital technology has driven a transformation in learning approaches in higher education to support the strengthening of 21st-century skills among students. This study aims to analyze the influence of Augmented Reality-Integrated Project-Based Learning on students' creative innovation, computational thinking, and academic…

Background/purpose: This study presents the findings of an initial investigation into developing a Computational Thinking-Enhanced Assessment Tool (CTe-AT) based on computational thinking principles. Materials/methods: We conducted comprehensive interviews with 10 lecturers and another 10 students to gain a deeper insight into educators' and…

Students encounter hundreds of word problems throughout the elementary grades and on standardized assessments through high school. To demonstrate proficiency on these measures of mathematics competency, students must be skilled in solving word problems. Early detection of word-problem difficulty is essential, and screeners play an important role…

In recent years, the intersection of music and coding has emerged as a cross-disciplinary approach to engage learners in both musical and computational expression. This article examines the motivations and framing of recent music and coding research through an analysis of 65 articles published between 2004 and 2024. We survey the key findings of…

This study explores the specialized knowledge mobilized by a mathematics teacher when implementing an interdisciplinary activity based on the sigmoid function in an 11th grade class. The research aims to identify the mathematical and didactic knowledge elements present during the activity and to detect potential conceptual or pedagogical…
