Use of Program Schemata in Lisp Programming: an Evaluation of its Impact on Learning
Mária Bieliková, Pavol Návrat · 1998
In the paper, we describe our approach and experience with teaching fundamentals of functional programming by program schemata construction and explanation. Program schemata for processing of lists are presented. Our approach reflects our ultimate goal - to support the learning process. As the main result, we report on experiments that allow to judge quite favourably the approach to teaching functional (Lisp) programming when the student learns a set of program schemata and how to apply them.
