Effects of online procedural scaffolds and the timing of scaffolding provision on elementary Taiwanese students' question-generation in a science class

“…Recently, based on the features of networked technology (e.g., less time-bound, more place and deviceindependence, large storage space, high processing speeds, multi-media capability, anonymity, and so on), a dozen or so online learning systems that focus on student question-generation have been developed -such as QPPA by Chan (2002, 2005), POP-B and POP-C by Akira, Tsukasa, and Akira (2004), QAIS by Barak and Rafaeli (2004), MCIDA by Fellenz (2004), Concerto II by Hirai and Hazeyama (2007), ExamNet by Wilson (2004), PeerWise by Denny, Hamer, Luxton-Reilly, and Purchase (2008), QuARKS by Yu (2009), CodeWrite by Denny, Luxton-Reilly, Tempero, and Hendrickx (2011), QPIS by Lan and Lin (2011) and StudySieve by Luxton-Reilly (2012). While most existing systems allow students to generate questions of different types and media formats, and include an element of peerassessment, the need to incorporate online scaffolding to support student question-generation activities has rarely been acknowledged.…”

Crowdsourcing in Computer Science Education

“…As an another example, CodeWrite [3] is a web-based tool used to crowdsource simple programming assignments from the student population. In CodeWrite, the students create an assignment description and fill out a method that works as a solution for their description, as well as create tests for their implementation.…”

“…For example, student reviews of Peer-Wise have been positive, and the system has been described as a very good way of reviewing course topics [1,2]. Similarly, based on student reports, CodeWrite helped the users to learn programming concepts, as they spent time investigating each other's solutions and comparing them to their own [3].…”

Uma Ferramenta Para a Introdução À Programação E Pensamento Computacional Com Motivação Usando Realidade Virtual

“…Essa observação é reafirmada no trabalho de Paul Denny et al (2011). Nele, Denny e os outros autores buscam compreender a barreira da sintaxe para os programadores iniciantes.…”

“…Os autores (Denny et al, 2011) verificaram que a frequência de submissões com problemas de sintaxe é de aproximadamente 50% para Q1, cerca de 60% para Q2, 65% para Q3 e 73% para Q4. Mesmo sendo o menor valor, o número de problemas relacionados a sintaxe em Q1 era muito maior do que os pesquisadores esperavam.…”
