Several national and international computing and engineering organizations are in the process of developing a new curricular document tentatively titled 'Computing Curricula 2020' (CC2020). This curricular project, based on its predecessor CC2005, intends to reflect the state-of-the-art in computing education and practice as well as the future of the computing educational field for the 2020s. This...
Because of the present deep impact of information technology on society, school subjects that deal with topics of computer science or digital literacy gain importance nowadays. Some countries start to teach related topics in primary education and even in kindergarten. The underlying curricula, educational standards and/or competency models have already been developed and established and differ in...
As computer science enters the school curricula in an increasing number of countries, teachers must prepare to integrate digital competences into their teaching. This integration is a moving target where new methods, tools and applications appear and disappear at such rates that teachers must have confidence to independently and continuously explore what is new, what is relevant and how to plan their...
A key component of the tertiary education system is the negotiation of common expectations in terms of pedagogy and the manner in which learning is scaffolded in the learning context. This paper addresses this interplay of perspectives by drawing on two elements of our previous work, a longitudinal study of student identity development [1] and a study contrasting project course students' experiences...
In this paper, we design a five-sided educational data mining framework (5S-EDMF) to analyze college students' diligence and effectiveness of study, and to recommend learning resource accordingly. We noticed data collected from students' E-learning activities to reveal a lot about the attitudes and behaviors of students online as well as offline. This provides us an additional valuable tool to access...
The ability of students to retain information for future use is worthwhile in any subject. Specifically, it is essential in IT because concepts are built upon each other as a student progresses through a curriculum and courses. In this paper, we propose a mobile-based micro learning approach to help students to retain more knowledge and skills, and support classroom learning. The idea is to chunk...
Providing feedback to learners on their writing assignments is one of the most important and time-consuming tasks that a supervisor performs. In e-Education environments, especially in the case of distance learning, giving feedback becomes more challenging because there are often no opportunities for face-to-face interaction. Typically, a supervisor provides comments to learners in written form via...
Systems Analysis and Design, a second year subject offered as two modules is offered as part of the Information Technology course at the North-West University's Vaal Triangle Campus. Being sensitive to the learning preferences of the learners, varied opportunities for learners to learn have been developed over a period of time. These include visual, auditory, reading-and-writing, learn-by-doing (VARK),...
In next generation technology-enhanced learning environments, intelligent educational systems can benefit from tapping into multi-agent, adaptive, gamified learning experiences, which transform the traditional instructional paradigm from classroom-based learning to personalised learning in any setting, whether collective or individual. Such settings enable learning targeted to each individual's learning...
A new mathematical principle relating to the optimum placement of structural elements in spatially or temporally distributed information systems (e.g. 2D data arrays) with respect to redundancy and vector processing speed, using novel design based on combinatorial configurations expounds. The research covers various aspects of modern computer sciences and information technologies including a teacher...
A new approach to optimum processing of multi-dimensional data arrays for advanced information technologies and education informatics, using innovative mathematical principle based on the combinatorial configurations expounds in this paper. This approach relates to the optimum arrangement of structural elements in two-or multi-dimensional arrays with respect to minimizing of retrieval capacity, and...
The article reviews current research issues concerning the latest information technologies for effective virtual representation of a Higher Educational Institution, which serve to create its positive informational image in the global world community. The information activities of the university departments and offices are analyzed. The methods identifying university departments with low production...
The current state of the development of education in Ukraine in the field of information technology is analyzed. The ways of improving the efficiency of the educational training in the field of information technology are suggested.
A new turn in information revolution contributed to the formation of a new universal identity of the uniform postindustrial society. We refer to this phenomenon as the concept of a “New axial period”. The system of education, like all cultural institutions, turned out to be not ready for such a breakthrough in creating a new reality that entails certain problems. Among the problems are: pedagogical...
This paper presents RITA en RED, an improvement of RITA (Robot Inventor to Teach Algorithms) that came as a results of field tests in high schools of Great La Plata. The goals of the design of RITA en RED are: to promote the introduction of block programming competitions in the classroom, providing a collaborative space for the creation and analysis of programmed robot strategies, while favoring the...
From Last two decades internet technology is at top position. Due to internet technology, it is easy for communication, data transfer or sharing files. Internet technology is one of the major parts of computer science and engineering & electronics and telecommunication. There are many techniques and different subject of Computer Science & Engineering, Information Technology, and Electronics...
Scientific competitions are held for more than a hundred years now and many paradigms have been experienced meantime depending on domain and pursued objectives. In Computer Science, most of the programming competitions are based on the time-to-complete paradigm for more than 30 years. Though this approach is undoubtedly successful for some contestants and some objectives, lately new paradigms have...
The use of Information Technology (IT) in education is a must now and it should bring benefits to education especially in the university level. Good information technology governance is required in the field of education from planning to implementation. This study aims to evaluate how effective and efficient the implementation of information technology governance at the Universitas Atma Jaya Yogyakarta...
Contemporary world has witnessed great and rapid technological developments. The most important ones that have happened are in the field of information technology and telecommunications. What happened is by the virtue of integration between (1) information technology with its digital computer systems which have high ability to process and the great quantity of data sufficiently and rapidly, and (2)...
Under the surplices of the infrastructure of the internet and because of many types of Web 2.0, a great development has happened in the services offered throughout the nets; this appeared because of plenty of huge save spaces, and high quick speed of the internet. Besides, the variable of great number of programs by which the learner can use the sets without the need of software programs. These programs...
