Recent studies have shown that children are not adequately physically active and there is a need to increase children's physical activity. This study describes new opportunities and solutions for using existing games and gamification to increase physical activity among children in Sweden. We adopted the principles of Tic-Tac-Training to redesign,…

Agbo, Friday Joseph; Oyelere, Solomon Sunday; Suhonen, Jarkko; Laine, Teemu H. – Education and Information Technologies, 2021
Understanding the principles of computational thinking (CT), e.g., problem abstraction, decomposition, and recursion, is vital for computer science (CS) students. Unfortunately, these concepts can be difficult for novice students to understand. One way students can develop CT skills is to involve them in the design of an application to teach CT.…
