This study was designed to evaluate CS curriculum implementation in order to inform CS practices. Interview and survey data were collected and analyzed. Findings showed that teachers had high confidence in teaching CS; however, they sought professional development to acquire content knowledge and instructional strategies to effectively engage students in learning. As for the curriculum and students, the scope of the curriculum needed to be adjusted along with students’ prerequisite skills and knowledge. As for the context, some schools did not have appropriate facilities. Recommendations for implementing CS curricula and implications are discussed.","PeriodicalId":45769,"journal":{"name":"COMPUTERS IN THE SCHOOLS","volume":"38 1","pages":"98 - 124"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2021-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/07380569.2021.1911540","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47104733","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}

Participants were 197 postgraduate students in the field of educational sciences in eight different public universities in Turkey: 105 (53.3%) doctoral students, 92 (46.7%) master’s students. The results revealed a significant positive attitude between research self-efficacy and critical thinking. The results also showed that attitude toward computers and critical thinking accounted for 3% of total research self-efficacy variation; and that of these two variables, critical thinking made a significant contribution to the model. Based on ongoing levels of education, there was a significant difference between the research self-efficacies of master’s and doctoral students. The source of this variation was attributed to doctoral students’ research self-efficacy scores being significantly higher than those of master’s students. Additionally, results showed a significant difference between attitudes toward computers of master’s and doctoral students.","PeriodicalId":45769,"journal":{"name":"COMPUTERS IN THE SCHOOLS","volume":"38 1","pages":"125 - 141"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2021-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/07380569.2021.1911554","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49067802","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}

Eighteen juniors and seniors, at a school that attempts to leverage technology to personalize learning, thought aloud as they completed online reasoning tasks. Three themes emerged from analyses of think-aloud data. First, students assembled ad hoc lists of surface features (e.g., a website’s layout or top-level domain) that they used to render decisions about whether content was trustworthy. Next, they judged the usability of an article as a way to decide whether it was reliable. Finally, they interpreted the presence of data as conferring credibility on online posts, regardless of the quality of the source. These students spent a great deal of the school day in front of computers, yet this study suggests that students relied on evaluation tactics best suited for vetted print information—not the open web.","PeriodicalId":45769,"journal":{"name":"COMPUTERS IN THE SCHOOLS","volume":"38 1","pages":"75 - 97"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2021-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/07380569.2021.1912541","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42797975","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 three most extensively discussed themes appeared to be assessment (19.11%), communication methods (12.23%), and use of online instructional approaches (11.90%). Teachers from schools that did not provide devices to students (i.e., not “one-to-one”) tended to report concerns around digital access more frequently (6.87%) and tended to express a more negative sentiment (Sentiment Mean = –.09) than teachers at schools that provided devices (5.69%; Sentiment Mean = 1.35, p < .01).

While important, accessibility is often overemphasized by users when consuming and evaluating web resources. This prioritization may have particularly negative consequences for the selection of supports or interventions in educational settings. This study outlines the development of Usage Rating Profile-Web Resource (UPR-WR), an assessment designed to support the identification, evaluation, and use of web resources. Additionally, preliminary validity evidence supporting the URP-WR interpretation and use argument (IUA) is presented. Content validation and exploratory factor analyses results yielded an URP-WR comprised of 31 items across four identified factors: plausibility, accessibility, appearance, and systems support. Extracted factors demonstrated acceptable reliability estimates (α = 0.82–0.93) and levels of social validity. This resulting URP-WR stands to provide assessment data that will aid educators in selecting web resources of quality for use in a practical setting.","PeriodicalId":45769,"journal":{"name":"COMPUTERS IN THE SCHOOLS","volume":"37 1","pages":"269 - 291"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2020-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/07380569.2020.1835388","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49089254","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}

Partial least squares (PLS) was employed to validate the proposed model and hypotheses using data collected from 132 primary and secondary school teachers. Results showed that teachers’ attitude and technology beliefs, and their self-efficacy regarding mobile-based teaching had significant positive impacts on their intention to adopt mobile devices in teaching. Meanwhile, teachers’ mobile device skills and mobile-based pedagogical knowledge strongly influenced their self-efficacy of mobile device-based teaching. Finally, the subject culture clash had a significant negative influence on teachers’ attitudes, technology beliefs, and self-efficacy toward mobile-based teaching.

This mixed method study applied cognitive orientation (CO) theory to measure 266 pre-service teachers' willingness to engage in online collaborative learning (OCL) after experiencing it. Willingness to engage in OCL was examined via a digital CO questionnaire regarding four types of beliefs: one’s own functionality, one’s experience with OCL, the ideal collaborative functioning of the group, and OCL goals. Next, the correlation between these beliefs was determined. A correlation between at least three beliefs indicated a tendency, which we termed a theme. The themes possibly predicting posterior inclusion of OCL were confidence in functioning, perceived value of the collaborative writing process, and relevance of the task sequence to professional development. This research suggests a method for extracting themes indicating willingness to engage in OCL in order to demonstrate ways to enhance that willingness.","PeriodicalId":45769,"journal":{"name":"COMPUTERS IN THE SCHOOLS","volume":"37 1","pages":"217 - 233"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2020-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/07380569.2020.1834821","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46431294","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}

However, previous research suggests that students have not fully taken advantage of the opportunities provided by these technologies. Two key factors, including mathematics conception and mathematics study approaches differentially used such technologies and consequently promote the quality of mathematics education. We hypothesized that these key factors play a key role in this shortcoming. A survey of 442 high school students from Iran was conducted to examine the hypotheses through structural equation modeling. Results confirmed that mathematics conception and mathematics study approaches were associated with students’ experiences and evaluations of using supportive digital technologies in mathematics learning. Moreover, mathematics study approaches mediated the relationship between mathematics conception and students’ experiences and evaluation of using these digital technologies. These findings explain how mathematics conception contributes to learning experiences when students use such digital technologies.","PeriodicalId":45769,"journal":{"name":"COMPUTERS IN THE SCHOOLS","volume":"37 1","pages":"168 - 195"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2020-07-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/07380569.2020.1793050","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41613727","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}
