D&D: A Quantitative Study of the Impact of Using Learner-driven and Machine-driven Visualizations on the Enhancement of Computer Programming Education for Novice Learners
Wed, Oct 19, 3:30 to 4:30pm, Conf Ctr, Ballroom CShort Description
The main limitation in using alternative teaching strategies and techniques in computer programming education is that sometimes critical run-time errors occur, even invisible errors, such as logical errors, that jeopardize the effectiveness of their use. Code-visualization can be both a solution to this dilemma and an effective way of teaching learners. This paper aims to investigate any differences in learners’ attitudes and achievements between using learner-driven versus machine-driven visualization tools in computer programming education.
