  • An Evaluation of Programming Assistance Tools to Support the Learning of IT Programming: a Case Study in South African Secondary Schools
    An Evaluation of Programming Assistance Tools to Support the Learning of IT Programming: A Case Study in South African Secondary Schools by Melisa Koorsse Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Philosophiae Doctor in Computer Science at the Nelson Mandela Metropolitan University Promoter: Prof C.B. Cilliers Co-Promoter: Prof. A.P. Calitz January 2012 Declaration I, Melisa Koorsse (199201064), hereby declare that the thesis for my qualification to be awarded is my own work and that it has not previously been submitted for assessment or completion of any postgraduate qualification to another University or for another quali- fication. M. Koorsse Copyright © 2012 Nelson Mandela Metropolitan University All rights reserved. ii Summary Worldwide, there is a decline in interest in the computer science profession and in the subject at secondary school level. Novice programmers struggle to understand introduc- tory programming concepts and this difficulty of learning to program is contributing to the lack of interest in the field of computer science. Information Technology (IT) learners in South African secondary schools are novice programmers, introduced to introductory programming concepts in the subject which also includes topics on hardware and system software, e-communication, social and ethical issues, spreadsheets and databases. The difficulties faced by IT learners are worsened by the lack of suitably qualified teachers, a saturated learning programme that allocates very little time to the understanding of complex programming concepts and limited class time where practical examples can be implemented with the support of the IT teacher. This research proposes that IT learners could be supported by a programming assistance tool (PAT).

  • The Alice Suite
    The Alice Suite Wanda Dann Don Slater Steve Cooper Computer Science Department Computer Science Department Computer Science Department Carnegie Mellon University Carnegie Mellon University Stanford University Pittsburgh, PA 15213 Pittsburgh, PA 15213 Stanford, CA 94305 1-412-268-9959 1-412-268-4370 1-650-723-9798 [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] Abstract This paper presents the chronology of the development of the Alice software tool and its evolution into a suite of tools for a wide range of curricular goals. This paper will also help instructors determine the best component of the Alice suite to use in their particular classroom setting. Over the last decade, the Alice Project has emerged as a pioneer and a leading innovator in providing a software tool for teaching and learning problem solving and fundamental concepts of computer programming. Alice was originally created in the early 1990’s as a rapid prototyping tool for creating animations in virtual reality. Virtual reality is a computer-based simulation where the user wears a special set of goggles and gloves, and uses a 3D controller to move through and interact with a world that only exists in the user’s perception. The original Alice 3D animation software (we might refer to it as Alice 1) was developed by a research and development team directed by Dr. Randy Pausch, starting at the University of Virginia and continued at Carnegie Mellon University. Alice was used at Carnegie Mellon's Entertainment Technology Center in Building Virtual Worlds, a first course for graduate students who are preparing for a career in the interactive media industry (gaming and animation).
