Recent studies suggest that computational models help students maintain a productive line of modeling while interacting with them as non-human participants. This qualitative case study explored how elementary school students used an block coding-based computational model to construct the ecosystem model which represents complex interaction among biotic and abiotic elements and the scientific practices they used to create a more sustainable model. For this study, 6th grade students were guided to act like scientists to predict and modify the ecosystem using one of the computational models, Starlogo-nova. This study found that the computational model was able to stimulate students' scientific practice positively. First, the computational model can facilitate students' creation, evaluation, and revision of the ecosystem models. Second, the computational model can help students formulate theories for more sustainable the ecosystem models. Based on the results of the study, this study concluded that the computer model should be used in future science education.
Abstract
