متن کاملLanguage Trends in Introductory Programming Courses
Deciding what to teach novice programmers about programming and, in particular, which programming language to teach to novice programmers, and how to teach it, is a common topic for debate within universities. Should an industry relevant programming language be taught, or should a language designed for teaching novices be used? In order to design tools and methodologies for the teaching of novi...
متن کاملA Formal Language Selection Process for Introductory Programming Courses
The selection of a programming language for introductory courses has long been an informal process involving faculty evaluation, discussion, and consensus. As the number of faculty, students, and language options grows, this process becomes increasingly unwieldy. As it stands, the process currently lacks structure and replicability.

متن کاملEvaluating a new programming language
We describe our efforts using the Cognitive Dimensions framework to evaluate a new programming language. We used a questionnaire approach to gather framework data related to the new language and combined this with a traditional lab-based evaluation. With this approach, we were able to validate the findings from the cognitive dimensions questionnaire by correlating them with the findings from th...
متن کاملSeven Deadly Sins of Introductory Programming Language Design
We discuss seven undesirable features common to many programming languages used to teach first-time programmers, and illustrate typical pedagogical difficulties which stem from them with examples drawn from the programming languages ABC, Ada, C, C++, Eiffel, Haskell, LISP, Modula 3, Pascal, Prolog, Scheme, and Turing. We propose seven language design (or selection) principles which may reduce t...
