    CHAPTER 2 The first program: Little Crab topics: writing code: movement, turning, reacting to the screen edges concepts: source code, method call, parameter, sequence, if-statement In the previous chapter, we discussed how to use existing Greenfoot scenarios: We ­created objects, invoked methods, and played a game. Now we want to start to make our own game. 2.1 The Little Crab scenario The scenario we use for this chapter is called little-crab. You will find this scenario in the book-scenarios folder. The scenario you see should look similar to Figure 2.1. Exercise 2.1 Start Greenfoot and open the little-crab scenario. Place a crab into the world and run the program (click the Run button). What do you observe? (Remember: If the class icons on the right appear striped, you have to compile the project first.) On the right you see the classes in this scenario (Figure 2.2). We notice that there are the usual Greenfoot Actor and World classes, and subclasses called CrabWorld and Crab. The hierarchy (denoted by the arrows) indicates an is-a relationship (also called inher- itance): A crab is an actor, and the CrabWorld is a world. Initially, we will work only with the Crab class. We will talk a little more about the CrabWorld and Actor classes later on. If you have just done the exercise above, then you know the answer to the question “What do you observe?” It is: “nothing.” M02_KOLL4292_02_SE_C02.indd 17 2/3/15 7:39 PM 18 | Chapter 2 ■ The first program: Little Crab Figure 2.1 The Little Crab scenario Figure 2.2 The Little Crab classes The crab does not do anything when Greenfoot runs.

  • Java Ide's One-On-One*
    DR. J VS. THE BIRD: JAVA IDE'S ONE-ON-ONE* Michael Olan Computer Science and Information Systems Richard Stockton College Pomona, NJ 08240 609-652-4587 [email protected] ABSTRACT An important decision facing instructors of introductory programming courses is the choice of supporting software development tools. Usually this involves selecting an integrated development environment (IDE). BlueJ has received widespread adoption for first year courses that use the Java programming language; however, DrJava is emerging as an alternative. This paper features a comparison of the pedagogical approaches used by BlueJ and DrJava as a guideline for selecting the tool best suited to the teaching style used in the introductory course. 1. INTRODUCTION The choice was simple when text editors and the command line were the only tools for developing programs. That changed with the introduction of integrated development environments (IDE's), and campuses nationwide adopted Borland's Turbo Pascal. Languages also have changed. Pascal was designed as a teaching language, but now academic programs use advanced languages designed for professional software engineers. Making these complex languages accessible to beginning students requires a careful selection of the development environment. This discussion will only include Java, currently the dominant language choice for introductory courses. Let us first consider several levels of tool support in the introductory course sequence: 1) Minimal: A text editor and the command line. 2) Simple IDE: Just the basics, no bells and whistles. 3) Professional IDE: Powerful and feature filled. ___________________________________________ * Copyright © 2004 by the Consortium for Computing Sciences in Colleges.

Department of Educational Research, Lancaster University, UK.

The word count is 57,743 excluding references. Signature ........................................................ Maira Kotsovoulou (BSc, MSc) Exploring student perceptions about the use of visual programming environments, their relation to student learning styles and their impact on student motivation in undergraduate introductory programming modules Doctor of Philosophy, July 2019 Abstract My research aims to explore how students perceive the usability and enjoyment of visual/block-based programming environments (VPEs), to what extent their learning styles relate to these perceptions and finally to what extent these tools facilitate student understanding of basic programming constructs and impact their motivation to learn programming. My overall methodological approach is a case study that explores the nature of potential benefits to using a VPE in an introductory programming module, within the specific context of an English-speaking institution of higher learning in Southern Europe. Part 1 of this research is a pilot study, which uses participatory action research as a methodological practice to identify which visual programming environment will be selected for the main study.

  • DUM Č. 1 V Sadě 35. Inf-11 Objektové Programování V Greenfoot
    projekt GML Brno Docens DUM č. 1 v sadě 35. Inf-11 Objektové programování v Greenfoot Autor: Lukáš Rýdlo Datum: 08.06.2014 Ročník: studenti semináře Anotace DUMu: Úvodní informace k celé sadě, metodika. Simulace života zajíce v Greenfoot - seznámení s prostředím aplikace a jazykem. Materiály jsou určeny pro bezplatné používání pro potřeby výuky a vzdělávání na všech typech škol a školských zařízení. Jakékoliv další využití podléhá autorskému zákonu. Sada projektů pro výuku programování mírně pokročilých studentů Úvod k sadě DUMů Tato sada DUMů obsahuje tři části a v ní dva projekty vhodné pro mírně pokročilé studenty programování. Části popořadě obsahují projekt simulační hry „Život zajíce“ v jazyce Java a prostře- dí Greenfoot, druhá část obsahuje tutéž simulační hru v jazyce C s využitím grafické (herní) knihov- ny Allegro (a IDE Dev-C) a třetí část je věnována projektu bitmapového konvertoru v jazyce C pro příkazovou řádku. Tyto tři značně nesourodé projekty mají dát možnost šikovnějším studentům programování srovnat různé přístupy a paradigmata i prostředí. Na rozdíl od ustrnulé individuální a systematické výuky jednoho konkrétního jazyka je mají připravit na reálné programátorské úkoly v reálném prostředí, ve kterém programátor musí často volit různé přístupy nebo paradigmata a učit se vhodnější a pro daný úkol lépe použitelnější jazyk, dohledávat si potřebné informace ve zdrojích na internetu a ne- spoléhat jen na naučenou teorii. V DUMech nebude vysvětlena teorie systematicky, ale zásadně pouze s orientací na řešení konkrét- ního problému a také formou odkazů na externí zdroje. Předpokládám, že studenti již ovládají zá- kladní syntax nějakého C-like jazyka a dovedou minimálně pracovat s proměnnými, podmínkami a (vnořenými) cykly, že dovedou sami a bez pomoci řešit jednoduché úkoly, umí program zkompi- lovat a spustit v nějakém IDE.
