Development of a Script for Self-Assessment Scaffolding in CS1

This poster describes a research project that is in the preliminary stages, working to develop a pedagogical intervention based on prior education research. Self-efficacy is known to be an important factor for success in computing. What is less known is how computing instructors can support students on this dimension. Prior research has suggested that self-assessment scaffolding can benefit students' self-efficacy and learning outcomes, so we are developing a pedagogical intervention to that end.
