| Popis: | This study investigated the outcome of project-based, airplane design activities on promoting computational thinking (CT) in sixth grade students in the context of an integrated STEM learning environment. A curriculum unit of airplane design activities was implemented in a sixth grade classroom over 10 days. The students' CT skills measured by the Bebras Challenges were significantly improved after their completion of the airplane design curriculum unit. |
