Abstract
There has been considerable recent interest in a number of questions related to theory within computing education research. In this editorial, we summarize some of this recent interest, discuss the process in which this special issue came to be, and how papers were selected for inclusion. We end with a brief summary of each of the six papers appearing in this special issue, highlighting the relevance of each to this issue's theme.
期刊介绍:
ACM Transactions on Computing Education (TOCE) (formerly named JERIC, Journal on Educational Resources in Computing) covers diverse aspects of computing education: traditional computer science, computer engineering, information technology, and informatics; emerging aspects of computing; and applications of computing to other disciplines. The common characteristics shared by these papers are a scholarly approach to teaching and learning, a broad appeal to educational practitioners, and a clear connection to student learning.
