Abstract

Self-efficacy is an important construct in education, as it can influence (among other aspects) perseverance, engagement and success on educational tasks. As such, a student’s Computational Thinking (CT) self-efficacy can have an important influence on, and may be a predictor for, the development and use of CT skills. This poster abstract provides the details of an in-progress study in which we develop a scale to measure CT self-efficacy in different contexts.
