大学生计算思维能力培养水平实证研究——以全国大学生计算机设计大赛为例

An Empirical Study on the Cultivation of College Students’Thinking Ability——Taking the National Computer Design Competition for College Students as an Example

计算思维是当前计算机教育重点研究方向之一,培养大学生计算思维能力是计算机教育的一项重要内容,通过鼓励大学生参加计算机大赛等综合实践活动,有利于启发和培养学生的计算思维能力。对大赛获奖数据进行分析,得到大学生计算思维能力培养现状。选取近5年参赛数据为样本,运用SPSS软件对我国高校大学生计算思维培养水平现状进行研究。结果发现,我国在大学生计算思维培养方面取得了积极成果,相关高校表现突出,经验值得借鉴和学习。

Computational thinking is one of the key research directions of current computer education.It has become an important part of computer education to train college students’computational thinking ability.Among them,professor He Mingqin of Zhejiang Univer⁃sity and Cao Han of Shanxi Normal University believe that by encouraging college students to participate in computer competitions and other comprehensive practical activities,it is beneficial to inspire and cultivate students’computational thinking ability.This paper se⁃lects the data of the last five years as samples to analyze the results of the competitions of participating universities.Through the analy⁃sis of the winning data of the competition,this paper tries to analyze the current situation of the cultivation of the computational think⁃ing ability of college students in China.First,reliability test and KMO calculation were performed,which were 0.816 and 0.804,re⁃spectively.Meanwhile,the original hypothesis of Bartlett’s sphericity test is that the correlation coefficient matrix is the identity ma⁃trix,which satisfies the factor analysis conditions.After that,the variance of the two common factors after rotation was obtained,38.428%and 21.706%.Finally,the matrix of factor scoring coefficient was constructed.Through calculation,it is found that China has made positive achievements in the cultivation of college students’computational thinking,and many universities,such as Xi’an Uni⁃versity of Electronic Science and Technology,Northeastern University and Anhui University,have made outstanding achievements,among which the experience is worth learning.
