Dataset for the publication "The TACS Model: Understanding Teachers' Adoption of Computer Science Pedagogical Content in Primary School"

This dataset contains the quantitative teacher data used to analyse an in service teacher training program for Computer Science that took place from September 2019 to March 2020 in the Canton Vaud in Switzerland. Approximately 180 teachers from the the 5th and 6th grade in primary school (ages 9-11) participated in 3 days of training sessions. At the end of each training session, teachers were asked to fill in a web-based questionnaire providing information relating to their perception of the training sessions and adoption of the computer science activities. The surveys were analysed from three perspectives which are detailed in the corresponding article (the professional development program's perspective, the activities' perspective, the teacher's perspective). The present repository thus contains three csv files, one per analysis. A README is included and provides additional information regarding : - the requirements for re-use.  - the survey instrument used - the specific content of the 3 csv files

Dataset to Model the Sustainability of a Primary School Digital Education Curricular Reform and Professional Development Program

This dataset contains the quantitative teacher data used to analyse the sustainability of an in-service teacher training program for Digital Education that took place from September 2019 to March 2020 in the Canton Vaud in Switzerland. As such, the study follows up on the 350 teachers over a year after the end of their professional development program had ended in order to model the sustainability of the reform,  understand to what extent sustainability had been reached, thus validating the curricular reform model and helping draw recommendations for researchers and practitioners involved in Digital Education curricular reforms. As such, approximately 290 teachers from grades 1-4 in primary school (ages 5-9) responded to two sustainability surveys using web-based questionnaire to provide information relating to their perception of the training sessions and adoption of the computer science activities. The study is accepted for publication in Education and Information Technologies.  A README is included and provides additional information regarding : - the requirements for re-use.  - the specific content of the 2 csv files

Data from a cross-sectional study of fifth grade children in a sample of primary schools in Belgium that differ in amount of greenness at school and landscape level

The data in this deposit were collected as part of the <code>B@SEBALL</code> project (Biodiversity at School Environments - Benefits for All).  The project investigated how biodiversity in the school environment can positively affect children’s health and mental well-being.  <code>B@SEBALL</code> also investigated the opportunities for reducing health inequalities among children via biodiversity at school environments. The data are organized according to the <a href="https://specs.frictionlessdata.io/data-package/">Frictionless Data Package standard</a>. All child-level and school-level data have been anonymized. Each data package is a collection of <code>csv</code> files and a <code>json</code> file. The <code>json</code> file holds descriptive information for all variables in all <code>csv</code> files. The <code>zip</code> file contains two frictionless data packages. The data packages contain information on 37 primary schools and 513 children.  The data package, <code>data_package_an_zenodo_cleaned_data</code>, contains the original data in a tidied and cleaned format.

only store information for participants that gave consent for a particular part of the study and that gave consent for long-term storage of the data. There may therefore be slight differences between results published as part of the project consortium, which could make use of participant data that did not give consent for long-term data storage, and reproduction of these results based on the data in this data repository. We also note that the derived variables in the derived data package were calculated with these participants included and removal of participants for which we had no long-term storage consent was done after these calculations. As part of the project, microbiome data were also collected (both from cheek swabs on the children and from environmental samples), but this part of the data are not a part of this deposit and will be deposited in the European Nucleotide Archive (ENA).

contact-primary-school

<h3>Overview</h3>This dataset is constructed from a contact network among children and teachers at a primary school.We form hyperedges through cliques of simultaneous contacts. Specifically, for every unique timestamp in the dataset, we construct a hyperedge for every maximal clique amongst the contact edges that exist for that timestamp. Timestamps were recorded in 20-second intervals.<h4>Statistics</h4>Some basic statistics of this dataset are:<ul><li>Number of nodes: 242</li><li>Number of timestamped hyperedges: 106,879</li><li>Number of unique hyperedges: 12,799</li></ul><h4>Source of original data</h4>Sources:<ul><li><a href="http://www.sociopatterns.org/datasets/primary-school-temporal-network-data/">SocioPatterns</a></li></ul><h4>References</h4>If you use this dataset, please cite these references:<ul><li><a href="https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0023176">High-Resolution Measurements of Face-to-Face Contact Patterns in a Primary School</a>.

The Prediction of the Rate of the Dropout of the Primary Schools Students by Using the Genetic Algorithm-Figure 18. Drawing of the time series for males and females of primary stage students and its prediction)

Note that the Tabulated value   equals 3.841 while the Q value is less than   Tabulated value, so it takes the Null Hypothesis which manifests that the emptiness of the evaluated model out of the contrast in accordance trouble. It's possible to notice that the two parameters functions (Autocorrelation and Partial correlation Functions)  of the residues for male females primary stage, in which the residues  value is located within confidence interval limits, which means the residues series is random and the evaluated model is good and convenient as it is presented.

The Prediction of the Rate of the Dropout of the Primary Schools Students by Using the Genetic Algorithm- Figure 12. Drawing of autocorrelation function and partial correlation for females primary stage students

We use the Unit Radix Dickey-Fuller Test to ensure the series’ stability. The results are: Dickey-Fuller Test Estimated Value = 0.369693, Statistic Test =1.01829, P-Value=0.9194 We notice from the values above P-Value = 0.9194 on the abstract level of 0.05 which leads to accepting the Null Hypothesis and refusing the Alternative Hypothesis (Existence of a Radix Unit) implies that the time series is instable. By taking the first difference, we notice that the stability of the time series has been achieved. See Figure 11.

After diagnosing and evaluating the models, the accommodating and the sufficiency of the models must be checked for primary stage female students, through applying the compute (Ljung- Box Q) to check the model accommodation on the function level 0.05 so the Q value occurs of primary stage female students: Ljung-Box Q' = 0.966626, With p-value = P(Chi-square(1) > 0.966626) = 0.3255 However, the Tabulated value   equals 3.841 whilst the Q value is less than Tabulated value, so it accepts the Null Hypothesis which indicates the emptiness of the evaluated model out of the contrast accordance trouble. It's possible to notice the two parameters functions (Autocorrelation and Partial Correlation Functions)  of the residues for  females primary stage students, in which the residues  value is located within the confidence interval limits, which means the residues series is random and the evaluated model is good and convenient as it is shown.

The Prediction of the Rate of the Dropout of the Primary Schools Students by Using the Genetic Algorithm-Figure 9. Drawing the time series for males and females primary stage students

The Unit Radix Dickey-Fuller Test is used to ensure the series’ stability. The results are: Dickey-Fuller Test Estimated Value = 0.736458 , Statistic Test = 0.380545 , P-Value  = 0.794 We notice from the values above P-Value = 0.794on the abstract level of 0.05 which leads to refusing the Null Hypothesis and accepting the Alternative Hypothesis ( The Nonexistence of a Radix Unit) implies that the time series is stable. Figure (9) represents the time series of females and males in the primary stage students.
