Description of the dataset

Description: The empirical data comprised 4th grade students' Scratch programming work in primary school classrooms. The students participated in a 12-lesson programming course, during which they programmed mainly in pairs on the same computer, designing creative programming projects together. The study collected two sets of data: the students' Scratch programming projects and video recordings of four pairs of students working on the last programming projects of the session during two lessons.

The data were destroyed in accordance with the research plan and the data protection notice two years after the end of the study.
