’ math and science learning, it is of paramountimportance that their heightened interest to learn new concepts be employed to engage them tolearn fundamentals of computer programming. An early development of interest in math,science, and computer programming will enable students to remain interested in and excel inSTEM disciplines as they progress through the educational pipeline. Finally, introduction to andengagement with hands-on STEM learning will encourage students to consider and pursue Page 26.17.2STEM studies and careers.13,16In this paper, we consider the use of a blocks-based visual environment to demonstrate and teachrobot-programming

In addition, instructors had unlimited access to the websites for grading,feedback, and evaluation purposes which was not possible when the notebooks existed in aphysical form. Another factor influencing the use of the new platform was that all students onthe project team would have access to the portfolio during their entire college career and afterthey graduate. This would allow them to showcase their robot in interviews with potentialemployers. These many factors were integral in enhancing the student

The resulting database of simulation usage data has been effective in detecting andresponding to usage patterns of successful and unsuccessful students, allowing for iterativedevelopment of educational material. For example, ensemble averages of mouse location forsuccessful and unsuccessful attempts in a spectrophotometer simulation revealed thatunsuccessful students did not understand the need to properly calibrate. Student study habits andproblem solving strategies also are evident in such data. Finally, we have found usage trackingdata to be effective in improving user experience; for example, we detected attempts to interactwith non

They’re very academically competitive…and they wanted to know more just so they could demonstrate their knowledge and show other students what they had learned on their own before they came to class. - I feel like my groups as a whole showed more interest in STEM, and they liked seeing the application of their knowledge to specific careers. As a whole, I noticed that more introverted students had a voice, and they were more involved in the project than they had been in the past.Also as indicated by the surveys, 89% of the participating teachers would recommend ourtraining on Scratch programming to other teachers, the remaining 11% were neutral, and none ofthe

Increasing the number of people who enter engineering, computer science, and otherSTEM-oriented fields has been expressed as a national concern over the past two decades as thenation's global economic position has long rested on the robustness of its STEM workforce [1,2]. One area of interest to policymakers and industry leaders is elementary and middle gradeseducation, where initial aspirations to a STEM career take root through encounters with mathand science that can predict later achievement within these fields. Spatial intelligence, or theability to make spatial judgments and visualize, has been shown to be a strong indicator ofmiddle school students’ future achievement in STEM related courses [3-5]. Further, researchershave pointed to spatial

The minimum specifications are designed to guide a purchase in thesophomore year that ensures that laptop’s features will be adequate until graduation three yearslater.

Females tend to have less confidence in theircomputer-related skills than males, and this pattern has been found from elementary school 10 tocollege 11, 12. The gender inequity on computer-related self-efficacy can be attributed to differentsocialization experiences of females and males, and was found to be a reflection of gender biasedsocial expectations as expressed by parents 13.

Some students said they stumbled upon the videos whilesearching for any online resources, while other students reported discovering the resourcethrough word-of-mouth (classmates or instructors). They expressed the need for frequentreminders by faculty that ME Online exists, especially when students are in their early years inthe program. One student noted: “When I first learned about the videos, I think it was, like, the end of my second year or early third year, and I remember looking at all of the videos there. And I was like, ‘Oh shoot! I could have used these!’ … [The college should] make it clear
