K-12 Computing Education for the AI Era: From Data Literacy to Data Agency
Matti Tedre, Henriikka Vartiainen · 2023
The question of how to teach classical, rule-based programming has been driving much of the computing education research since the 1950s. In the K--12 (school) context, a consensus has emerged over time on the paradigmatic elements of computing education, which implicitly assumes a von Neumann computer executing instruction sequences guided by imperative programs. Within this framework, many researchers have focused on how to facilitate learners to develop an accurate mental model of what the computer does when it executes a piece of code.
