Blended learning (BL) has taken a predominant role in the educational realm after the COVID-19 pandemic, which has led to significant adjustments in the educational system, being teachers the main enforcers of these changes. Taking into account the role ...

This study aimed to investigate the learning experiences of pre-service teachers (PSTs) as they performed microteaching activities designed to improve TPACK skills through collaboration, feedback, and reflection. The intervention consisted of five stages:...

Pre-service teacher (PST) field placements often occur in homogeneous classrooms. Simulated classrooms are emerging as a complementary context for implementing new skills with culturally, linguistically, and socioeconomically diverse students. Previous ...

Computational thinking (CT) is viewed as a support structure for educators to develop computational literacies [18][35]. The majority of research around CT practices has focused on decomposition, abstraction, and algorithmic thinking; however, there is ...

The current study developed a data literacy instrument with 20 contextual questions and conducted a multi‐mode survey with 232 pre‐service secondary teachers in a university system. Three‐way ANOVA was used to test whether pre‐service teachers ...

Computational thinking is a key competence for children to learn in today’s digitized world. In order to effectively teach computational thinking, elementary science teachers need to have appropriate professional knowledge, consisting of content as well ...

Throughout the world, Computer Science Education (CSE) has ex- panded exponentially over the past decade, focused on teaching primary and secondary students computing ideas and tools. To teach all these students computer science (CS), models for teacher ...

In this paper we present an approach on how to design teaching practices for pre-service teachers that allow for learning, experimenting, reflecting, and designing own future lessons that include programming in diverse school subjects. The aim is to ...

Current advances emphasize that young learners benefit from developing and applying computational thinking (CT) skills to solve problems in a variety of subjects, not limited to mathematics and science. Under this scenario, the inclusion of CT in ...

In recent years, there has been a growing awareness of the need for computer science education opportunities and particularly for engaging students in computational thinking ideas and practices to help them understand how computing influences our world. ...

Across the globe, Computer Science Education has grown tremendously over the past decade to teach primary and secondary students computing ideas and tools. From integrating computational thinking in disciplines to teaching computer science as a stand ...

While computational thinking has gained popularity in K-12 schools to increase access to computing tools and practices, there is still limited understanding on how to broaden participation of students with disabilities in computational thinking (CT). ...

The development of information technology in education, the digitization of educators and pre-educators have received world attention, as well as in China for nearly a decade. Taking China as a case study, this paper identifies efforts and challenges on ...

This study aimed at using EFL YouTube videos as a supplementary resource for teaching vocabulary in the classroom. It was carried out in public institutions of eighth grade of basic education in Ecuador. The participants were 150 Spanish native speakers ...

Teacher attrition has remained a serious issue, which has drawn enormous researcher's attention. This study explores how teaching motivations of pre-service students have changed in the first three years of their situated Free Teacher Education Program (...

Until recently, computer science (CS) has been predominantly taught at upper-secondary or tertiary levels. Lately, however, CS curricula have been introduced into school systems from the very first year of school. In this paper, we undertake a ...

The purpose of this presentation is to report K-5 pre-service teachers' perceptions, concerns, and interest in computer science (CS) education. To help pre-service teachers prepare for the new Alabama technology Standards, CS education activities and ...

A growing number of countries, in Europe and beyond have established clear policies and frameworks for introducing Computational Thinking and computer programming to young children. Researchers, educators, and key stakeholders believe that these skills ...

The definition and framework of technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK) have developed along the information technology which integrated in learning and teaching. This paper focuses on how the pre-service teachers in Teaching Chinese of ...

Video games are a common form of entertainment, but they can also be a useful learning resource. To implement video games effectively, it is important to make good video game selections and to consider certain criteria. One of these criteria is the ...
