This book creates a theoretical framework to consider the integration of computational thinking (CT) into learning and teaching processes in different contexts from a design-based learning (DBL) perspective, and presents various intervention studies. The chapters each focus on a different aspect of CT integration through DBL, providing an overview and discussing the benefits of integrating CT into the curriculum. The book also discusses the design thinking process and how it can be used to promote CT, focusing on CT concepts and considering perspectives on how these concepts can be integrated into DBL activities. It also explores how artificial intelligence (AI)-based design-oriented learning activities can be used to develop students' CT skills, examines the information technology (IT) concept of pattern recognition, and provides examples of how this can be integrated into DBL activities. It presents practical examples on integrating CT into the teaching-learning process from a design-based learning perspective, summarizes approaches to assessing CT skills, and discusses them in the context of design-based learning. Lastly, this book also conducts a bibliometric analysis of publication and citation trends in computational thinking research conducted in design-based learning.

Über Autor(innen)

Dr. Mustafa Saritepeci is an associate professor at Necmettin Erbakan University in the Republic of Türkiye. He completed his doctoral education in the field of computer and instructional technology education and received the title of Associate Professor in the field of instructional technologies. Dr. Saritepeci researches instructional technologies, design-based learning, computer science teaching, and problematic digital technology use.

Dr. Hatice Yildiz Durak is an associate professor at Necmettin Erbakan University in the Republic of Türkiye. Dr. Yildiz Durak is the coordinator of the TUBITAK-supported ARDEB 1001 project, which started in March 2021, and has published 70 articles in international journals and 18 articles in national journals. Within the scope of these studies, Dr. Yildiz Durak integrated new pedagogical approaches and current methods with programming education; and online learning, and examined their effectiveness. In addition to experimental studies, she has also contributed structural models that can support theoretical progress to academic literature.
