Introductory programming courses traditionally face high drop-out rates and poor performance, and students often perceive learning to program as difficult. Current research on diversity in programming education has primarily focused on gender differences, thus neglecting the influence of other diversity dimensions on students’ performance. The project Diversity in Programming Education (DIPE) aims to fill this gap by identifying how heterogeneous groups of students can be best supported. Based on our findings, we develop a didactic concept with accompanying teaching and learning material to support different diversity dimensions actively in programming education. The concept includes competence models for measuring competences and individual learning paths. To support a flat learning curve further in university programming courses in the future, we closely work with schools and educational centres for teachers to integrate algorithmic thinking into school curricula. We empirically evaluate our concept using a mixed methods approach. In particular, we will explore the effects of our concept in our programming course and will investigate the value of these effects as perceived by lecturers and students.","PeriodicalId":178923,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE Global Engineering Education Conference (EDUCON)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-04-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124354730","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The proposed serious game trains users to write G-code and set up virtual machines for completing Milling and Turning tasks, contrary to previous work mainly focusing on machining simulations. G-code is a simple and usable low-level command set for manufacturing complex objects without prior knowledge of Computer-Aided Manufacturing (CAM) systems. The proposed CNC machining serious game can be used as a standalone introductory training application before being involved with CNC manufacturing. It contains CNC machining and G-code tutorials explaining processes without the need for a book or the assistance from a trainer. The user can select to train in turning and milling machines. The system adapts to each user's progression and performance, assigning missions to a user when mistakes are continuous, while hastening the progress of an experienced user to more advanced missions. The user can check the correctness of the code they have written and receive feedback in relation to potential mistakes.","PeriodicalId":178923,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE Global Engineering Education Conference (EDUCON)","volume":"59 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-04-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121945177","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This phenomenon has been not only ideal but essential in STEM programs (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics), with the aim of developing the aspect of digital transformation, although technological enablers have ended up being used also as Teaching Tools. But what about the Learning Tools? The present work shows that it is possible that, without the adequate design of a framework for the Teaching and Learning Process, these innovative technological resources are not capable of guaranteeing per se the effective intellectual engagement of students in their own learning. The cognitive and metacognitive tools used in this work were designed for the development of four skills declared as fundamental in the Education 4.0 Framework: Innovation and creativity, global citizenship, digital transformation and interpersonal skills. This paper offers findings, results and discussions of a study conducted over 3 years, with more than 200 engineering students, by implementing an approach designed especially for Generation Z students.","PeriodicalId":178923,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE Global Engineering Education Conference (EDUCON)","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-04-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128523952","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For the assimilation of concepts it is necessary that, outside the classroom, without the presence and support of the teacher, the student uses materials that allow to remember and eventually complement the learning during the class and simultaneously facilitate and guide, leading to the achievement of the defined objectives. As technology evolves, study materials and support platforms are increasingly diverse and it is important for the teacher to know which means students use and their motivations. A survey was conducted with a group of students from an undergraduate degree in biomedical engineering from a Portuguese higher education institution in order to understand their study habits and the materials they use when out of the classroom. From the analysis of the answers it was possible to infer that the students show preference for studying in a family environment, alone and using as materials the class notes provided by the teachers. Despite the growing use of videos and other multimodal media, the written, personalized notes and orientations set by the teacher are still the most preferred.","PeriodicalId":178923,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE Global Engineering Education Conference (EDUCON)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-04-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127407306","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Software engineering is well known to be a male dominated field even though the first software engineer was a woman. Research has shown that storytelling can be used to improve students and teachers engagement in primary and secondary education. However, there is a lack of research on storytelling application and efficiency in higher education to teach complex concepts. This study explored the impact of combining a story with lecture on undergraduate female students in a software engineering course. We investigated the following hypothesis: Combining storytelling with lectures can improve the female students interest in software engineering. A questionnaire study has been conducted with 24 female undergraduate students in the classroom. Students had no prior knowledge on software engineering before the study. The questionnaire was designed to be simple to motivate students to participate in the study. It contained three questions to capture the interest of female students in pursuing a career in software engineering: prior to the lecture, after the lecture, and after the story. The results showed that the story incorporated in the lecture had great impact on female students perception about software engineering. Combining storytelling with software engineering lectures seems a promising tool to engage female students in higher education and increase their interest in pursuing a career in software engineering.","PeriodicalId":178923,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE Global Engineering Education Conference (EDUCON)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-04-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127427374","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
