Prompting collaborative and exploratory discourse: An epistemic network analysis study

Vandenberg, J., Zakaria, Z., Tsan, J., Iwanski, A., Lynch, C., Boyer, K. E., & Wiebe, E. (2021, August 7). International Journal of Computer-Supported Collaborative Learning, Vol. 8.

By: J. Vandenberg n, Z. Zakaria n, J. Tsan*, A. Iwanski*, C. Lynch n, K. Boyer*, E. Wiebe n 

author keywords: Epistemic network analysis; Primary grades; Discourse; Pair programming; Collaboration
topics (OpenAlex): Innovative Teaching and Learning Methods; Parental Involvement in Education; Online and Blended Learning
TL;DR: An easy-to-implement prompting intervention in the context of collaborative (pair) programming with upper elementary students to demonstrate the potential of ENA was found that intervention students—those given empirically-derived prompts in support of collaborative and exploratory talk—asked questions, justified their thinking, and offered alternative ideas in ways that were both qualitatively and quantitatively different from control students.

Two-Computer Pair Programming: Exploring a Feedback Intervention to improve Collaborative Talk in Elementary Students

Zakaria, Z., Vandenberg, J., Tsan, J., Boulden, D. C., Lynch, C. F., Boyer, K. E., & Wiebe, E. N. (2021, February 3). Computer Science Education, Vol. 32, pp. 3–29.

By: Z. Zakaria n, J. Vandenberg n, J. Tsan n, D. Boulden n , C. Lynch n, K. Boyer*, E. Wiebe n 

author keywords: Pair programming; collaboration; elementary school; feedback; intervention
topics (OpenAlex): Teaching and Learning Programming; Innovative Teaching and Learning Methods; Software Engineering Techniques and Practices
TL;DR: This study employs an intervention to explore the role instructor-directed feedback plays on elementary students’ dyadic collaboration during 2-computer pair programming and highlights ways to support students in pair programming contexts so that they can maximize the benefits afforded through these experiences.

Elementary Students’ Understanding of CS Terms

Vandenberg, J., Tsan, J., Boulden, D., Zakaria, Z., Lynch, C., Boyer, K. E., & Wiebe, E. (2020, June 16). ACM Transactions on Computing Education, Vol. 20.

By: J. Vandenberg n, J. Tsan n, D. Boulden n , Z. Zakaria n, C. Lynch n, K. Boyer*, E. Wiebe n 

author keywords: Cognitive interviewing; elementary; computer science; instrument development
topics (OpenAlex): Teaching and Learning Programming; Educational Games and Gamification; Innovative Teaching and Learning Methods
TL;DR: The refinement of a validated survey to measure upper elementary students’ attitudes and perspectives about computer science (CS) indicated that students could not explain the terms computer programs nor computer science as expected, and struggled to understand how coding may support their learning in other domains.
