Abstract: 
Researchers use replication to confirm, strengthen, and advanceComputing Education Research (CER). However, prior research shows that replication is infrequently used in CER, even though the community encourages its use. Previous research suggests that the CER community uses different terms to describe replication, which we aim to confirm in this Working Group (WG). We will conduct a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) across influential international CER venues to understand how researchers present and conduct replication studies, possibly identifying venues receptive to papers applying this research design. In addition, we will interviewComputing Education researchers, conference leaders, and journal editors to understand their experiences and perceptions with replication. We expect to collect suggestions and recommendations on how CER can encourage more replication in future studies. Our work will highlight and confirm the terms the CER community uses to present replication studies, enabling researchers and educators to better identify these studies
