Sure you can code!
A RESEARCH PROJECT ON YOUTH’S PERCEPTION OF DIGITAL TECHNOLOGY
The project ”Sure you can code” investigates how the recent digitalization reform in Swedish schools, where programming is now on the schedule, impacts how school pupils view technology.
During 2020 and 2021 we'll be visiting classes in the 6th grader to ask the pupils about their thoughts on coding.
In one of the projects, we also collaborate with Vattenhallen Science center at Lund University, that lets school pupils in grade 8 and 9 try out computer programming in a playful manner.
The project is run by researchers at the Department of Psychology at Lund University. It runs from 2020-2023 and is financed by the Swedish Research Council for Health, Working Life and Welfare (Forte). Project leader is Associate Professor Una Tellhed.

The project is led by the research group Psychological Research on Gender Segregation (PROGS) at the Department of Psychology at Lund University
