Effects of Automated Feedback in Scratch Programming Tutorials

#CSK8 Podcast - A podcast for computer science educators

In this episode I unpack Obermüller, Greifenstein, and Fraser’s (2023) publication titled “Effects of automated feedback in Scratch programming tutorials,” which investigates the impact of two different types of hint generating approaches among two different classes.
