Pair Programming in an Introductory Computer Science Course: Initial Results and Recommendations

by Laurie Williams, Kai Yang - In Proceedings of the AAAI Workshop on Approximation and Abstraction of Computational Theories (mimeographed , 2002
"... Prior research indicates that pair programming, whereby two programmers work collaboratively on the same design, algorithm, code, or test, produces higher quality code in essentially half the time taken by solo programmers. An experiment was run at North Carolina to assess the efficacy of pair progr ..."

Developing an intelligent diagnosis and assessment e-learning tool for introductory programming

by Chenn-jung Huang, Chun-hua Chen, Yun-cheng Luo, Hong-xin Chen, Yi-ta Chuang - Educational Technology & Society , 2008
"... Recently, a lot of open source e-learning platforms have been offered for free in the Internet. We thus incorporate the intelligent diagnosis and assessment tool into an open software e-learning platform developed for programming language courses, wherein the proposed learning diagnosis assessment t ..."

tools based on text mining and machine learning techniques are employed to alleviate the loading of the teachers. Experiments were conducted in two introductory-undergraduate programming courses to examine the effectiveness of the proposed diagnosis and assessment tools. The learners ’ work including

Materials for an exploratory theory of the network society.

"... ABSTRACT This article aims at proposing some elements for a grounded theor y of the network society. The network society is the social structure characteristic of the Information Age, as tentatively identi ed by empirical, cross-cultural investigation. It permeates most societies in the world, in v ..."

Automated Student Code Assessment with Symbolic Execution and Java

by San Luis Obispo, Karl Bell , 2012
"... by Karl Bell The assessment of student code is a necessary part of most programming courses. However, many ways of assessing the correctness of student code can be very time-consuming and may be error-prone. This paper presents JSymTester, a tool which uses the symbolic execution framework of the Ja ..."

Adaptation and assessment of a public speaking rating scale

by Gina Iberri-Shea , 2017
"... Abstract: Prominent spoken language assessments such as the Oral Proficiency Interview and the Test of Spoken English have been primarily concerned with speaking ability as it relates to conversation. This paper looks at an additional aspect of spoken language ability, namely public speaking. This ..."

. This study used an adapted form of a public speaking rating scale originally designed for English as a foreign language (EFL) contexts. This paper seeks to evaluate the relationship between this EFL-based scale and assessment within a core US university public speaking course. The relevance of EFL

Building Pair Programming Knowledge Through a Family

by Laurie Williams, Charlie Mcdowell, Julian Fernald, Linda Werner - of Experiments,” International Symposium on Empirical Software Engineering (ISESE) 2003 , 2003
"... Pair programming is a practice in which two programmers work collaboratively at one computer on the same design, algorithm, code, or test. Pair programming is becoming increasingly popular in industry and in university curricula. A family of experiments was run with over 1200 students at two US univ ..."

Students who used the pair programming technique were at least as likely to complete the introductory

Flipped,   Crowd-‐Sourced,   Gamified,   Socialized  and  Funkified:   Throwing  Everything  But  the Kitchen Sink  at  Introductory  Programming  Classes

"... is exploding. Active learning, online learning, hybrid learning, social learning are just a few of the popular methods being discussed, tried, and adapted for teaching CS. The motivation for trying these approaches is often to respond to new technology and/or research on learning. Yet, we are starti ..."

See What You Want to See: Motivational Influences on Visual Perception,”

by Emily Balcetis , David Dunning - Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, , 2006
"... People's motivational states-their wishes and preferences-influence their processing of visual stimuli. In 5 studies, participants shown an ambiguous figure (e.g., one that could be seen either as the letter B or the number 13) tended to report seeing the interpretation that assigned them to o ..."

that top-down influences also inform perception. For example, context matters. Prior exposure to images of animals or people biases what people see when they view classic ambiguous figures, such as the rat-man and old woman-young woman figures so often featured in introductory psychology textbooks
