In this episode I unpack Laurent et al.’s (2022) publication titled “Impact of programming on primary mathematics learning,” which describes a randomized control study that compared the impacts of learning mathematics with an integrated CS and mathematics class.
Article
Laurent, M., Crisci, R., Bressoux, P., Chaachoua, H., Nurra, C., de Vries, E., & Tchounikine, P. (2022). Impact of programming on primary mathematics learning. Learning and Instrucction (82), 1-9.
Abstract
“The aim of this study is to investigate whether a programming activity might serve as a learning vehicle for mathematics acquisition in grades four and five. For this purpose, the effects of a programming activity, an essential component of computational thinking, were evaluated on learning outcomes of three mathematical notions: Euclidean division (N = 1,880), additive decomposition (N = 1,763) and fractions (N = 644). Classes were randomly assigned to the programming (with Scratch) and control conditions. Multilevel analyses indicate negative effects (effect size range -0.16 to -0.21) of the programming condition for the three mathematical notions. A potential explanation of these results is the difficulties in the transfer of learning from programming to mathematics.”

My One Sentence Summary
This randomized control study compared the impacts of learning mathematics with an integrated CS and mathematics class.
Some Of My Lingering Questions/Thoughts
-What approaches to integration do you think work better than others?
-If you were working with someone who wanted to integrated CS with another subject area, what advice would you give them?
