Scratch on Road Pedagogical Model: Study of learning perception
This paper presents Scratch on Road
pedagogical model, that is been used in several 4th grade
classes. This model foresees the participation of both the
community and higher education institutions, with active roles
in classes and consequently in students’ projects – stories,
animations or games.
This pedagogical model has an investigation component
aiming to comprehend students’ perceptions relating their own
learnings. The study, conducted in three classes, reveals that
students don’t have a clearly perception relating their
learnings, with focus on specific Scratch contents.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio
Computer Programming Effects in Elementary: Perceptions and Career Aspirations in STEM
The development of elementary-aged students’ STEM and computer science (CS) literacy is critical in this evolving technological landscape, thus, promoting success for college, career, and STEM/CS professional paths. Research has suggested that elementary- aged students need developmentally appropriate STEM integrated opportunities in the classroom; however, little is known about the potential impact of CS programming and how these opportunities engender positive perceptions, foster confidence, and promote perseverance to nurture students’ early career aspirations related to STEM/CS. The main purpose of this mixed-method study was to examine elementary-aged students’ (N = 132) perceptions of STEM, career choices, and effects from pre- to post-test intervention of CS lessons (N = 183) over a three-month period. Findings included positive and significant changes from students’ pre- to post-tests as well as augmented themes from 52 student interviews to represent increased enjoyment of CS lessons, early exposure, and its benefits for learning to future careers
