About
Ching-Yeh Wang is a leading researcher in computer literacy education, with a focus on understanding how young students develop confidence and competence in programming, design thinking, and robotics. Her most influential work, the 2018 study "Developing the Computer Programming Self-Efficacy Scale for Computer Literacy Education," has garnered 177 citations and provides a foundational instrument for assessing middle school students' self-perceptions in programming—a critical tool as coding becomes a global educational requirement. Expanding on this, Wang's 2020 paper (53 citations) explores the link between design thinking disposition and programming self-efficacy, revealing how creative problem-solving skills enhance students' confidence in computing. Most recently, her 2021 development of the Robotics Learning Self-Efficacy Scale (RLSES) addresses a gap in robotics education assessment, grounded in Bloom’s Taxonomy. Together, these contributions establish Wang as a key figure in educational measurement, offering validated scales that empower educators to foster self-efficacy and design thinking in technology-rich classrooms. Her work directly supports the growing movement to integrate computational thinking into K-12 curricula worldwide.
