Abstract:

Computer Science is an increasingly important topic in K-12 education. Ever since the "computing crisis" of the early 2000s, where enrollment in CS dropped by over half in a five year span, increasing research has gone into improving and broadening enrollment in CS courses. Research shows the importance of introducing CS at a young age and the need for more exposure for younger children and young adults alike in order to work towards equity in the field. While there are many reasons for disinterest in CS courses, studies found one reason young adults do not want to study CS is a perception of

<p> Five years ago, the author began a second career as a teacher in a small Wyoming town with a diverse student population.

Abstract:

Computer scientists have been working towards a common definition of abstraction; however, the instruction and assessment of abstraction remain categorically underresearched. Because abstraction is often cited as a component of computational thinking, abstraction has been summarily likened to a higher order thinking skill. A broad conceptual framework including philosophy, psychology, constructionism, and computational thinking was aligned with the descriptive qualitative design and guided the literature review and data analysis. This qualitative examination of how teachers determine curriculu

Thesis advisor: Katherine L. McNeill<br>Recent K-12 science reforms necessitate a shift in curriculum and instruction to support coherence from the students’ perspective.

To rectify this, many policies at the state or national level are requiring higher education institutions to change.
