Rich, Kathryn M.; Yadav, Aman; Larimore, Rachel A. – Education and Information Technologies, 2020
Incorporating computational thinking (CT) ideas into core subjects, such as mathematics and science, is one way of bringing early computer science (CS) education into elementary school. Minimal research has explored how teachers can translate their knowledge of CT into practice to create opportunities for their students to engage in CT during…

Kanaki, Kalliopi; Kalogiannakis, Michail – Education and Information Technologies, 2018
Objects are everywhere. People deal with them from the beginning of their lives. From babyhood, they start to recognise them and, progressively, learn to define their attributes and designate the actions related to them. Although the basis of object-oriented programming is translating real-world objects into the object-oriented code, learning…

Gao, Hongyu; Yang, Weipeng; Jiang, Yunxiao – Education and Information Technologies, 2023
Computational thinking (CT) is a new literacy of 21st century that can be transferred to and applied in different real-world situations, although being derived from the discipline of computer science. Tangible robots or child-friendly digital apps are used to implement coding education with the goal of promoting young children's CT. However, there…

Happe, Lucia; Buhnova, Barbora; Koziolek, Anne; Wagner, Ingo – Education and Information Technologies, 2021
The interest of girls in computing drops early during primary and secondary education, with minimal recovery in later education stages. In combination with the growing shortage of qualified computer science personnel, this is becoming a major issue, and also a target of numerous studies that examine measures, interventions, and strategies to boost…

Marks, Benjy; Thomas, Jacqueline – Education and Information Technologies, 2022
Virtual and augmented (VAR) technology is in the early stages of being adopted as a teaching platform in higher education. The technology can facilitate immersive learning in environments that are not usually physically accessible to students via 3D models and interactive 360° videos. To date, adoption rates of VAR technology for teaching have not…

Webb, Mary; Davis, Niki; Bell, Tim; Katz, Yaacov J.; Reynolds, Nicholas; Chambers, Dianne P.; Syslo, Maciej M. – Education and Information Technologies, 2017
In this paper we have examined the position and roles of Computer Science in curricula in the light of recent calls for curriculum change and we have proposed principles and issues to consider in curriculum design as well as identifying priority areas for further research. The paper is based on discussions within and beyond the International…

Evenstein Sigalov, Shani; Nachmias, Rafi – Education and Information Technologies, 2023
Wikidata is a free, multilingual, open knowledge-base that stores structured, linked data. It has grown rapidly and as of December 2022 contains over 100 million items and millions of statements, making it the largest semantic knowledge-base in existence. Changing the interaction between people and knowledge, Wikidata offers various learning…

Habeeb, Kawthar M.; Ebrahim, Ali H. – Education and Information Technologies, 2019
This study examines the existing literature on information and communication technology and establishes that although there is a strong potential for these resources to generate improved student science concepts outcomes, many teachers fail to recognize that potential. The study then presents qualitative data acquired from teacher questionnaires,…

Mamedova, Larisa; Rukovich, Alexander; Likhouzova, Tetiana; Vorona-Slivinskaya, Lubov – Education and Information Technologies, 2023
The World Health Organization announced the COVID-19 pandemic, which led to considerable disruption of the global education system and required an early adaptation of the educational process. In addition to the resumption of the educational process, it was necessary to preserve the academic performance of students of higher educational…

Ioannou, Andri; Makridou, Eria – Education and Information Technologies, 2018
Educational robotics are increasingly appearing in educational settings, being considered a useful supporting tool for the development of cognitive skills, including Computational Thinking (CT), for students of all ages. Meanwhile, there is an overwhelming argument that CT will be a fundamental skill needed for all individuals by the middle of the…
