Investigating the Impact of On-Demand Code Examples on Novices' Open-Ended Programming Projects

PROCEEDINGS OF THE 2023 ACM CONFERENCE ON INTERNATIONAL COMPUTING EDUCATION RESEARCH V.1, ICER 2023 V1, pp. 464–475.

By: W. Wang *, J. Bacher n, A. Isvik n, A. Limke n, S. Sthapit n, Y. Shi n , B. Tabarsi  n, K. Tran n ...

author keywords: open-ended programming; code examples; block-based programming; novice programming
TL;DR: It was found that students who had access to all 37 code examples used a significantly larger variety of code APIs, perceived the programming as relatively more creative, but also experienced a higher task load. (via Semantic Scholar)

Participatory Design with Teachers for Block-based Learning with SnapClass

2023 IEEE SYMPOSIUM ON VISUAL LANGUAGES AND HUMAN-CENTRIC COMPUTING, VL/HCC, pp. 173–178.

By: A. Limke n, N. Lytle  n, S. Mahmoud n, M. Lin n, M. Hill n, V. Catete n , T. Barnes n

author keywords: K-12 computing; Block-based Programming; Participatory Design; computer science education; K-12 teachers
TL;DR: SnapClass, a new web-based learning platform for Snap!, integrates assignments with starter code, executable student submissions, rubric-based assessment, and a gradebook into one platform and identifies the common struggles teachers face while instructing programming and how they would address those struggles through the design of SnapClass.

Case Studies on the use of Storyboarding by Novice Programmers

PROCEEDINGS OF THE 27TH ACM CONFERENCE ON INNOVATION AND TECHNOLOGY IN COMPUTER SCIENCE EDUCATION, ITICSE 2022, VOL 1, pp. 318–324.

By: A. Limke n, A. Milliken n, V. Catete n , I. Gransbury  n, A. Isvik n, T. Price n , C. Martens n, T. Barnes n

author keywords: block-based programs; open-ended projects; planning; storyboards
TL;DR: This research explores how novice programmers used a custom-built planning tool, PlanIT, contrasted against how they used storyboarding when planning games, illustrating that students felt more creative when storyboarding rather than using PlanIT. (via Semantic Scholar)
