Cluster 1 (wafflestudents), featured lower average F, PI, and FoP scores than Cluster 3 (sugar students).

The platform is completely modifiable, and therefore, we foundit very convenient for this data set. In using the tool, we found it most convenient to “play” thereal-time screen capture recordings on a desktop computer with a large monitor and have theGORP tool on a touch screen tablet, so that as the data played, the researchers could click-on/click-off of the activities that were or were not happening.The GORP tool outputs time-series data into an excel spreadsheet, which we then uploaded intoMATLAB46 for data analysis and

The raters all noted the markedimprovement in the designs between the freshman and sophomore years, and this is borne out inthe data. By the time students become seniors, they have more experience programming, usingmore complicated three-dimensionally printed parts and have developed machine shop skills tocomplete even more sophisticated projects.

As computational thinking (CT) coursesbecome common in K-12 education [11]–[18], some higher education institutions also startedoffering computational thinking courses to students from any majors [4], [19]. At its heart, thismovement reflects that computational thinking is everywhere and for everyone [20].
