This paper presents the results of a pair programming experiment conducted at the University of Auckland (NZ) during the first semester of 2004. It involved 300 second year Computer Science students attending a software design and construction course. We investigated similar issues to those reported in [26] and employed a subset of the questionnaires used by Laurie Williams et al. on the experiments presented in [26]. Our results support the use of pair programming as an effective programming/design learning technique.
