Subclaims¶

q2 i? Learners who collaborated with RTC reported CPSE as high as those who programmed individually; the overall average of the 13 cases improved but did not achieve statistical significance. → Ting-Chia Hsu 2021

q2 · i? · causal · r1

Behavioral experiment in which 13 adult learners completed two individual projects then two RTC collaborative projects, with CPSE (16 items, Cronbach's α = 0.96) surveyed after each phase. The overall average of the 13 cases "did improve, but did not achieve statistical significance".

"this study confirmed that the Computer Programming Self-Efficacy (CPSE) was similar for individual and multi-user programming overall. The CPSE of the homogeneous CS-major groups engaged in programming within the RTC was higher"

Discussion¶

Related Claims¶

• Adult learners using RTC showed a two-way BMO–BCC revision loop, a DEL–DCR interface cycle, and more OI interaction than in individual programming
• Different group compositions adopted different collaboration strategies: homogeneous groups split interface and programming work, while the heterogeneous CS/non-CS pair showed the most divergent behavior patterns
• Homogeneous CS-major groups reported higher CPSE in collaborative programming than homogeneous non-CS and heterogeneous groups, with no significant difference between the latter two — related
• Whether individual or peer practice works better with ASR-based pronunciation training is unsettled: one study found individual work best, a meta-analysis found peer practice gave larger effects — related
• Pre-service teachers' collaborative diagnostic accuracy does not per se exceed individual diagnostic accuracy, but collaboration support can significantly enhance the added value of collaborative diagnosis — related
• In the collaborative MIT App Inventor study, significant interaction patterns signified coordination of behavior between team participants, and no lower self-efficacy emerged for non-CS-background participants — related
