“…Some of the strengths in using the IP strategy are content handling, analysis of content, dividing the students into smaller groups, and allowing the students to collaborate effectively on online platforms because of the COVID‐19 pandemic. This is in line with [29] who studied how IP affects students' progress and the development of 21st‐century capabilities in Taxation. The improved performance in the treatment group was a result of the instructional strategy adopted used for the study.…”

“…Thus, the use of IP provided students with the opportunity to partner with the computing industries and learn computer programming through the industry professionals helped to bridge the skills mismatch. According to the study [29], students’ ability to learn using IP and active learning methodologies aid students to develop their critical thinking, problem‐solving, information, and analytic skills among other higher‐level programming skills. Thus the use of IP helps maintain students' focus and deepen their understanding of computer programming.…”

“…Furthermore, studies have shown the application of 21st CS in biology [55], and education [102], among others, have a significant impact on learning outcomes, particularly in the development of DS skills. Studies have shown that DS can be enhanced using modern teaching approaches otherwise called innovative pedagogies which are today placed in the frontline of any academic discourse [29]. Unfortunately, its effectiveness in developing countries like Nigeria owing to issues of teachers and students’ unpreparedness [68] lack of ICT skills possessed during covid‐19 [24], poor learning environment [12], the poor state of power supply [1], among others mar its effective implementation.…”

“…Researchers affirm that DS skills aid in preparing students for the world of work because it provides an extensive set of work habits, knowledge, and social skills [29]. The authors identified some features of DS to include information literacy, creativity, communication, trait habits, association, and critical thinking, among others.…”

This study focused on the impact of teaching a computer programming course using innovative pedagogy namely a combination of context-based learning and problem-based interspersed with live online tools (Google Classroom and Google Meet) on university students in southeast, Nigeria. This study used a quasi-experimental research design and intact classes with a nonequivalent group. The population for the study comprised all 152 second-year computer education students in universities in Southeast Nigeria that offers computer programming. The sample consists of 60 males and 92 females in the three universities used. A computer programming achievement test was used to collect the data. The result showed that students worked collaboratively on the Google classroom and Google meet platforms, effectively enhancing collaboration learning among novice programmers as they chose when to learn, thus making the teaching and learning of programming less difficult. Findings further showed that student academic achievement significantly improved in programming skills, digital skills development, and self-efficacy in the treatment group more than in the control group. This improved performance was attributed to self-efficacy which was attributed to IP students were exposed to. It was suggested that computer lecturers should integrate innovative pedagogy using Google classroom and Google meet in their instructional delivery approaches.

“…Research has shown that teaching methods influence students' academic achievement [29][30][31][32]. e author stresses that the traditional method/lecture method (LM) focuses more on the standardized test without giving students room to think out a solution to a problem; thus, students are constrained to rote learning [33].…”

Education prepares one for the world of work; hence, the adoption of the innovative instructional approach employed in the process of teaching and learning is key to the attainment of this goal. To mitigate students’ poor achievement in computer programming (CP), innovative pedagogy (IP) was adopted to make students become active learners in classroom learning. In this study, a quasi-experimental design was used and nonrandomized the subject with pretest and posttest. Students (N = 145) were nonrandomized to the treatment and control groups. The researchers conducted a repeated measure of analysis of variance to determine the change between the experimental and control groups. Students’ attributes were tested for differences by comparing categorical data with chi-square statistics. The interaction effect was determined using an analysis of covariance. The results revealed that the experimental group’s CP achievement test results outperformed those of the control group at posttest and retention tests. Furthermore, the findings of the study show that there is no significant difference in students’ academic achievement across ability levels and gender. Also, there is no interaction between the pretest and the IP. The study, therefore, recommends that computer educators should adopt innovative teaching practices in their day-to-day teaching since it is more creative, learner-centered, and improved student engagement.

Available records of computer programming results from the universities in southeast Nigeria for the period under review (2016–2020) show that 70% of the students marginally passed the course. This, therefore, raises a concern to re‐examine the instructional strategy used in the teaching and learning process, hence the adoption of innovative pedagogy that involved the use of digital tools like Google Classroom and Google Meet in their instructional delivery process of a computer programming course. This study adopted quasi‐experimental research design involving intact classes with a nonequivalent group. Total population sampling technique was used to select all the 152 second‐year computer education students made up of 60 males and 92 females drawn from the three private universities in Southeast Nigeria that offer computer programming. Data was collected using computer achievement test, digital skill development scale and engagement level scale. The findings of the study showed that students' academic achievement and level of engagement increased significantly in a computer programming course. Also, digital skills development and self‐efficacy in the experimental group were higher than in the control group. Implementing innovative teaching strategies helped to facilitate the timely development of digital skills required by students to attain sufficient learner engagement in the learning process. It was recommended that computer educators should be encouraged to adopt innovative teaching techniques that blend with Classroom, Google Meet and MS Teams, among others to influence students' active engagement in the learning process.
