Abstrakt: Téměř nic není známo o tom, jaké prekoncepce o fungování počítačových zařízení a internetu mají žáci, kteří navštěvují 2. až 4. třídu ZŠ. Pokud je nám známo, nic se neví o tom, na jakých prekoncepcích se dají účinně budovat hlubší znalosti dětí a jaké prekoncepce naopak učení komplikují (vytvářejí tzv. miskoncepce).

Title: Computing-related Pre-conceptions of Primary School Children: Initial Insights from a Pre-study
Abstract: Little is known about what pre-conceptions primary school children have about basic computing-related concepts and which of these pre-conceptions are resistant to change; i.e., what concepts are difficult to understand and what concepts are easy. As part of a larger project, we have started to map these pre-conceptions among 2-4-graders and examine difficulty in acquiring scientifically normative, age-appropriate understanding of the respective concepts. As the first step, we explored this issue in an informal way in 22 classes in the Czech Republic. We have got the following initial insights: a) there is a large heterogeneity in levels of understanding among children; b) children’s understanding is often incomplete and fragmented; c) a recurring misconception is that internet is loaded on the child’s device, and this misconception is resistant to change; d) some children have no notion of data size; e) children know little about computer viruses and nothing about antiviruses.
