Abstract Computational thinking and programming have emerged as central 21st-century skills. Several countries have embedded these skills in their school curricula. This study investigates how an optional programming course affects eighth-grade mathematical problem solving in Norway using a quasi-experimental design with pre- and post-tests. These tests consist of problem solving items from the 2003 Programme for International Student Assessment (Organisation for Economic Co-operation & Development, 2003a). The students taking these tests were divided into two groups: one with students enrolled in an optional programming course and one with students enrolled in other optional courses. Our results indicate no significant difference in the development of mathematical problem solving for the optional programming course students compared with those in other optional courses. Our discussion of these results offers further insights into how problem solving in computational thinking and programming align with mathematical problem solving.
计算思维和编程已经成为21世纪的核心技能。一些国家已将这些技能纳入学校课程。本研究调查程式设计选修课如何影响挪威八年级数学问题的解决,采用准实验设计的前后测试。这些测试包括2003年国际学生评估方案(经济合作与发展组织,2003年a)中的问题解决项目。参加这些测试的学生被分为两组:一组是选修编程课程的学生,另一组是选修其他课程的学生。本研究结果显示,程式设计选修课程学生的数学解题能力发展与其他选修课程学生无显著差异。我们对这些结果的讨论提供了进一步的见解,以了解计算思维和编程中的问题解决如何与数学问题解决相一致。

Abstract There is a call for exploring the narrative transportation and reading performance among multimodality readings, i.e., single modality (text), dual modality (text + picture), and tri-modality (text + picture + audio). Altogether 42 junior high-school participants native in Chinese from an urban city in P.R. China were invited to the 90-minute experiment. The participants were administered English reading materials and a self-reported scale of transportation, along with a pretest to determine English proficiency level. The statistical analysis showed that (1) the transportation effect is highest in tri-modality readings, followed by that in dual and single modality readings. (2) There is no statistical difference between genders in relation to transportation effect. (3) Except for tri-modality reading, there is no statistical difference in relation to English proficiency for narrative transportation. The study results indicate that teachers could fully immerse students into narrative stories by pedagogically incorporating texts, pictures, and audios into reading materials.
摘要有人呼吁探索多模态阅读中的叙事运输和阅读表现,即单模态(文本)、双模态(文本 + 图片)和三模态(文本 + 相片 + 音频)。共有42名来自中国某城市的初中生受邀参加了这项90分钟的实验。参与者接受了英语阅读材料和自我报告的交通量表,以及确定英语熟练程度的预测试。统计分析表明:(1)三模态读数的运输效应最高,其次是双模态和单模态读数。(2) 在交通影响方面,性别之间没有统计学差异。(3) 除了三模态阅读外,叙事运输的英语水平没有统计学差异。研究结果表明,教师可以通过将文本、图片和音频融入阅读材料中,使学生完全沉浸在叙事故事中。

Abstract As a key motivational factor that determines future teaching success with Computational Thinking (CT), in this cross-sectional survey study, we investigated if and how preservice teachers’ (n = 76) self-efficacy for CT teaching, their usage of CT tools, and their motivation (utility value) were (inter)related. Through a series of regression analyses, we identified the associations between the three variables and found support for existing theories in the CT preservice education context. Notably, we found that CT usage and CT UV were only associated through the mediation of self-efficacy, which seems to be the key component for usage. We propose that CT focused interventions targeting utility value and classroom practices and policies should be provided to give preservice teachers experience in using CT software/tools are key for teacher education institutions and CT implementation into curricula.
摘要作为决定未来计算思维教学成功的一个关键动机因素,在这项横断面调查研究中,我们调查了职前教师( = 76)CT教学的自我效能感、他们对CT工具的使用以及他们的动机(效用值)是(相互)相关的。通过一系列回归分析,我们确定了这三个变量之间的关联,并为CT职前教育背景下的现有理论找到了支持。值得注意的是,我们发现CT使用和CT紫外线仅通过自我效能感的中介作用相关联,而自我效能感似乎是使用的关键组成部分。我们建议,应提供以CT为重点的干预措施,针对效用价值和课堂实践与政策,为职前教师提供使用CT软件/工具的经验,这是教师教育机构和CT在课程中实施的关键。

Abstract A major concern is how to tackle student smartphone addiction (SSA). First, however, analysis of the definition, causes, and consequences of SSA is necessary. There is a lack of consensus in this regard, and little research considers its multidisciplinary nature. This article first reviews the key literature across different disciplines. Based on this review, a conceptual model of SSA, its causes, and its consequences is proposed. Qualitative analysis is then used to explore this model empirically for the case of elementary and high school students. A total of 90 articles were reviewed. In addition, 33 in-depth interviews with experts and teachers from four European countries were conducted. The literature review shows the multifaceted nature of SSA. According to the literature, SSA is the result of biological, psychological, social, and technological factors and leads to health, performance, and social problems. The qualitative analysis identifies specific areas to develop this proposed conceptual model, based on the views of experts and teachers in relation to SSA.
摘要一个主要关注的问题是如何解决学生的智能手机成瘾问题。然而,首先,分析SSA的定义、原因和后果是必要的。在这方面缺乏共识,很少有研究考虑其多学科性质。本文首先回顾了不同学科的关键文献。在此基础上,提出了SSA的概念模型、原因及其后果。然后用定性分析的方法对中小学生的这一模型进行实证研究。共审查了90篇文章。此外,还对来自四个欧洲国家的专家和教师进行了33次深入访谈。文献综述显示了SSA的多面性。根据文献,SSA是生物、心理、社会和技术因素的结果,会导致健康、表现和社会问题。定性分析根据专家和教师对SSA的看法,确定了发展这一拟议概念模型的具体领域。

Abstract Improving the digital citizenship of secondary vocational students is critical for cultivating vocational talents in education. It is an inevitable requirement for modernizing vocational education. Focusing on social media competence, this study explores possible ways to improve the digital citizenship of secondary vocational students. A total of 469 secondary vocational students in Wuhan city, Hubei province, were investigated using questionnaires. The data analysis shows that the four dimensions of social media competence (technical use, content interpretation, content generation, and anticipatory reflection) significantly predict digital citizenship. On this basis, we propose four paths for improving the digital citizenship of secondary vocational students: creating a suitable environment for secondary vocational students to apply their skills in information technology; enhancing the ability of secondary vocational students to discriminate about information on the Internet; improving students’ interpersonal communication ability when dealing with technical support; building an early warning system for secondary vocational students’ behavioral perception.
摘要提高中等职业学生的数字公民素质是培养教育职业人才的关键。这是职业教育现代化的必然要求。本研究着眼于社交媒体能力,探索提高中等职业学生数字公民素质的可能途径。对湖北省武汉市469名中等职业学生进行了问卷调查。数据分析表明,社交媒体能力的四个维度(技术使用、内容解读、内容生成和预期反思)显著预测了数字公民身份。在此基础上,我们提出了提高中等职业学生数字公民素质的四条途径:为中等职业学生应用信息技术创造合适的环境;提高中等职业学生对互联网信息的辨别能力;在处理技术支持时,提高学生的人际沟通能力;构建中职学生行为感知预警系统。

Abstract Despite decades of efforts to address all levels of barriers, promoting technology integration in schools continues to be challenging and one of the most active research areas in teacher education worldwide. There is a need to better understand the factors influencing teachers’ intentions to integrate technology. Current models may lack parsimony and are limited in practical implications. Therefore, the primary purpose of the current study was to develop a new model by extending social cognitive theory. to explain pre-service teachers’ technology integration intentions and to test its cross-cultural validity with Turkish and Spanish pre-service teachers. The participants were 135 (76 Turkish and 59 Spanish) pre-service teachers in the early childhood education department. Path analysis results supported the utility of the model and revealed that openness, facilitating conditions, self-efficacy, and outcome expectations are interrelated, and each plays a unique and complex role in explaining technology integration intentions. More importantly, multi-group invariance analysis test results revealed that the proposed model explained pre-service teachers’ technology integration intentions in Turkish and Spanish samples with the exception of only one path, from openness to outcome expectations. The current extended social cognitive theory model is concise, includes pertinent constructs from other theoretical frameworks and models, and offers practical implications for teacher educators.
摘要尽管几十年来一直在努力解决各种障碍,但促进学校的技术整合仍然是一项挑战,也是全球教师教育中最活跃的研究领域之一。有必要更好地了解影响教师整合技术意图的因素。目前的模型可能缺乏简约性,实际意义有限。因此,本研究的主要目的是通过扩展社会认知理论来开发一种新的模型。解释职前教师的技术整合意图,并与土耳其和西班牙职前教师测试其跨文化有效性。参与者是幼儿教育部门的135名(76名土耳其语和59名西班牙语)职前教师。路径分析结果支持了该模型的实用性,并表明开放性、便利条件、自我效能和结果预期是相互关联的,并且每一个都在解释技术整合意图方面发挥着独特而复杂的作用。更重要的是,多组不变性分析测试结果表明,所提出的模型解释了土耳其和西班牙样本中职前教师的技术整合意图,只有一条路径除外,即从开放性到结果预期。当前的扩展社会认知理论模型简洁明了,包含了其他理论框架和模型的相关构建,并为教师教育工作者提供了实践启示。

Abstract Online grammar checkers have increasingly been used in writing instruction to detect and remove English as a foreign language (EFL) learners’ grammatical errors. This study investigated the effects of the automated writing evaluation software Grammarly on Iranian EFL learners’ article errors which are common in EFL writing. Ninety Iranian students majoring in English language and literature were selected through convenience sampling. They were divided into three groups, with one receiving Grammarly and teacher feedback (experimental group 1), one receiving Grammarly feedback (experimental group 2), and one receiving teacher feedback (control group). Both descriptive and inferential statistics were employed to analyze the data. In addition, one-way ANOVA, frequency analysis, and thematic analysis were used to analyze the data from pretests/posttests, questionnaires, and interviews. The results showed that the Grammarly and teacher feedback group outperformed the other groups in the post-test. This study recommends that EFL teachers consider incorporating online grammar checkers into their EFL writing courses as writing assistant tools.

Abstract Computer simulations are considered efficient in supporting exploratory learning. This paper highlights instruction challenges and undesirable consequences on student learning in exploratory learning with computer simulations in classroom situations. A classroom with students who explore using simulations contains ideas explicated on several communicative channels. We use the professional noticing paradigm to demonstrate how a teacher’s ability to listen to students’ thinking via a brief encounter in real classroom setups can yield misconstrued interpretation of students’ activity and impede learning. We present a case study where a teacher listens to students’ thinking in building a model with a dynamic mathematics environment. We show how the teacher’s response exacerbated those local confusions in ways that compromised the lesson’s goals. We reflect on how the lesson’s design influenced these outcomes and survey technology and activity developments to support teachers’ noticing.
计算机模拟被认为是支持探索性学习的有效方法。本文着重介绍了利用计算机模拟课堂进行探索性学习的教学挑战和对学生学习的不良影响。在课堂上,学生通过模拟进行探索,其中包含了通过多种交流渠道阐述的想法。我们使用专业注意范式来证明教师通过在真实课堂设置中的短暂接触来倾听学生思考的能力如何会产生对学生活动的误解并阻碍学习。我们提出了一个案例研究,在一个动态的数学环境中,老师倾听学生在建立模型时的思考。我们展示了老师的反应如何以损害课程目标的方式加剧了这些局部困惑。我们反思课程的设计如何影响这些结果,并调查技术和活动的发展,以支持教师的注意。

Abstract Based on a current Research to Practice Partnership (RPP) between a southeastern public university and a state virtual public school in the United States, ten high school teachers from a virtual school who teach Computer Science (CS) online participated in a summer workshop to collaborate through a participatory action research project regarding design, facilitation, and evaluation strategies to be included in effective professional development. The questions were posed through an online collaborative Jamboard during the summer workshop. The teacher posts were qualitatively analyzed to identify common themes. Recommendations for professional development on design included CS content, how to teach CS, and CS tools and activities. For facilitation, they recommended resources for supplemental instruction and feedback tools for providing feedback in various modalities and a tool repository. For assessment, they recommended content knowledge assessments, including lab assignments, single and pair programming, and coding assessments. Overall recommendations for a professional development course to teach CS online were also offered.
摘要基于目前东南部一所公立大学和美国一所州立虚拟公立学校之间的研究与实践伙伴关系(RPP),来自一所虚拟学校的十名在线教授计算机科学(CS)的高中教师参加了一个夏季研讨会,通过一个关于设计、促进、,以及将评价战略纳入有效的专业发展。这些问题是在夏季研讨会期间通过在线合作Jamboard提出的。对教师职位进行了定性分析,以确定共同的主题。关于设计专业发展的建议包括CS内容、如何教授CS以及CS工具和活动。为了方便起见,他们建议提供补充指导和反馈工具资源,以各种方式提供反馈,并建立一个工具库。对于评估,他们建议进行内容知识评估,包括实验室作业、单人和双人编程以及编码评估。还提供了关于在线教授CS的专业发展课程的总体建议。

Abstract The main purpose of the current research was to explore the relationships between beliefs/knowledge and technology integration (TI) during teaching practice (i.e., placement or practicum) among Indonesian pre-service teachers. Five core variables of the theory of planned behavior or TPB (subjective norms, attitudes, perceived behavioral control, behavioral intention, and behavior) and one extended variable, technological pedagogical and content knowledge or TPACK, were included in the proposed model. Data from 1,181 respondents were analyzed through the systematic steps of partial least square structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) and importance-performance analysis (IPMA). The main findings support all hypotheses; the strongest relationship emerges between behavioral intention and behavior, while the weakest correlation was between TPACK and behavioral intention. All variable performances were satisfactory. The highest performance was attitudes (71.734); the lowest was TPACK (65.027). Broadly, the results indicate the greater importance of beliefs as opposed to knowledge in influencing behavior in relation to TI.
摘要本研究的主要目的是探讨印尼职前教师在教学实践(即实习或实习)过程中信念/知识与技术整合(TI)之间的关系。计划行为理论的五个核心变量(主观规范、态度、感知行为控制、行为意图和行为)和一个扩展变量(技术教学和内容知识或TPACK)被纳入该模型。通过偏最小二乘结构方程模型(PLS-SEM)和重要性-绩效分析(IPMA)的系统步骤,对1181名受访者的数据进行了分析。主要研究结果支持所有假设;行为意向与行为之间的相关性最强,TPACK与行为意向之间的相关性最弱。各项性能均令人满意。表现最高的是态度(71.734);TPACK最低(65.027)。总的来说,研究结果表明,在影响与TI相关的行为方面,信念比知识更重要。
