This National Science Foundation award under the STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) provides $238,468 to Utah State University to conduct research on how novice computer programming students write code. The project aims to analyze students' coding processes using keystroke data to understand how they problem-solve and develop programming skills. The research team plans to develop models of student thinking and programming practices, identifying best practices that can be adopted to improve...
This $385,799 National Science Foundation project grant will fund research and educational activities through August 2024 under the STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076). The University of Delaware will leverage educational data mining to understand how undergraduate computer science students regulate learning and draw on motivational resources. Initial findings aim to inform a just-in-time learning intervention to improve study patterns. The project also seeks to increase participation of...
This National Science Foundation project grant of $1,283,565 will fund the development of an AI-driven classroom assistant called Insight to transform introductory computer science instruction from 2023-2027. Under the federal STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076), North Carolina State University will design, develop, and refine Insight to provide real-time adaptive feedback and coding analytics to both students and instructors. The university will collaborate with computer science courses at...
This $400,000 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) to the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) aims to redesign an introductory computer science (CS1) course to teach programming with the aid of large language model (LLM) AI assistants. The key goals are to: 1) Redesign the CS1 course to emphasize skills like code reading, testing, and problem decomposition rather than just syntax and writing code from scratch; 2) Study how...
