Exploring Computational Thinking in the Context of Mathematics Learning in Secondary Schools: Dispositions, Engagement and Learning Performance

International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2024

This study aims to bridge this research gap by developing CT-integrated mathematics lessons that incorporate CT-focused problem-solving and modeling in mathematics education. The study was conducted in a secondary school in Singapore, where students engaged in a mathematics modeling task while learning the four pillars of CT. To investigate the impact of integrating CT dispositions on student engagement and mathematics performance, a one-group posttest design together with a survey was administered. Mixed research methods were employed. Structural Equation Modeling analysis revealed that CT dispositions could enhance students' mathematics performance by fostering greater engagement in math, although a direct effect of CT disposition on mathematics performance was not observed. Additionally, interviews with students highlighted their positive dispositions towards CT, including a sense of capability, inclination, and sensitivity in utilizing CT for the modeling task and other contexts.

Critical Factors that Influence the Satisfaction of E-learning of Laboratory Subjects among University Students

This study attempts to determine the critical factors that influence the satisfaction of E-learning in laboratory subjects, to identify the satisfaction of university students with the E-learning process of laboratory subjects, and to examine the relationship between the critical factors and the satisfaction of university students with E-learning. In this study, third-year undergraduate students from the Faculty of Technology Management and Business (FPTP), Universiti Tun Hussein Onn Malaysia (UTHM) were selected as the participants. The questionnaire was employed to collect data for this study. The data collected were analyzed quantitatively using SPSS software. The results showed that the system quality was the most critical factor that influence the satisfaction of E-learning of the students during the laboratory activities. Furthermore, the UTHM students were satisfied with learning laboratory subjects via E-learning. There was a positive relationship between the critical factors and the satisfaction of UTHM students. This study has been conducted to help the lecturer, university, and the developer of the E-learning application analyzes the critical factors that the student faced during E-learning and give some suggestions to improve students' satisfaction with E-learning.
