Abstract: This poster presents findings from the implementation of a robotics curriculum emphasizing applying computational thinking (CT) to solve both programming and everyday reasoning problems. Utilizing an online CT instrument as the pre-and-post measure, students’ performance, improvement, and process data were analyzed. Results show that the curriculum helped students improve CT in both scenarios. While student self-determination was positively correlated to their score gains, other factors (gender, class, familiarity with problem settings) were not.
