Teaching CS50 with AI: Leveraging Generative Artificial Intelligence in Computer Science Education

Technical Symposium on Computer Science Education
In Summer 2023, we developed and integrated a suite of AI-based software tools into CS50 at Harvard University. These tools were initially available to approximately 70 summer students, then to thousands of students online, and finally to several hundred

It's All In The Mix: Leveraging food to increase students' persistence in Computer Science [PDF]

open access: possible2015 Research in Equity and Sustained Participation in Engineering, Computing, and Technology (RESPECT), 2015
Computer Science courses seek to hone students' computational algorithmic thinking (CAT) capabilities. Oftentimes, students fail to recognize the connection between CAT in everyday life and its application in academic settings. One context in which people have a great deal of experience and expertise engaging in the design, implementation, and ...

What We Can Learn About Student Learning From Open-Ended Programming Projects in Middle School Computer Science

Technical Symposium on Computer Science Education, 2018
Block-based programming environments such as Scratch, App Inventor, and Alice are a key part of introductory K-12 computer science (CS) experiences. Free-choice, open-ended projects are encouraged to promote learner agency and leverage the affordances of

Equity in the Who, How and What of Computer Science Education: K12 School District Conceptualizations of Equity in ‘CS for All’ Initiatives

Research in Equitable and Sustained Participation in Engineering, Computing, and Technology, 2019
Equity is arguably an agreed upon value within the Computer Science education (CSed) community, and perhaps even more so within efforts to universalize access to CSed within K12 settings through emerging ‘CS for All’ initiatives.

Computation in cognitive science: it is not all about Turing-equivalent computation

Studies in History and Philosophy of Science Part A, 2010
Abstract It is sometimes suggested that the history of computation in cognitive science is one in which the formal apparatus of Turing-equivalent computation, or effective computability, was exported from mathematical logic to ever wider areas of cognitive science and its environs. This paper, however, indicates some respects in which this suggestion

Coding for All

Proceedings of the 2017 ACM SIGCSE Technical Symposium on Computer Science Education, 2017
Many feel K-12 computer science requires a large tech budget, a classroom full of laptops, tablets or robots, and an experienced tech teacher. This belief is not unfounded as the majority of online computer science teaching materials require modern technology and Internet connectivity, making these tools inaccessible to the low-tech classroom.

Quantifying the Benefits of Prior Programming Experience in an Introductory Computer Science Course

Technical Symposium on Computer Science Education, 2018
The superior performance of students with prior exposure to programming has long been evident to faculty that teach introductory courses. In this paper we replicate previous studies that quantify the difference between students with and without previous ...

Eliminating Gender Bias in Computer Science Education Materials

Technical Symposium on Computer Science Education, 2017
Low female participation in Computer Science is a known problem. Studies reveal that female students are less confident in their CS skills and knowledge than their male counterparts, despite parallel academic performance indicators.

Digital technology teachers' perceptions of computer science: It is not all about programming

2014 IEEE Frontiers in Education Conference (FIE) Proceedings, 2014
A considerable body of research examines people's perceptions of the nature of science. There is also extensive research about what those perceptions are for teachers, and what strategies can be used to change them. There is, however, very little information about what these perceptions may be in the case of computer science.

Visions of Computer Science Education: Unpacking Arguments for and Projected Impacts of CS4All Initiatives

Technical Symposium on Computer Science Education, 2017
As momentum grows to expand K12 Computer Science (CS) education, associated public narratives often assume core questions about why CS should be taught to all students have been sufficiently answered.
