Approaches to teaching the programming languages course
Elizabeth S. Adams, Doug Baldwin, Judith Bishop, John English, Pamela B. Lawhead, Daniel E. Stevenson · ACM SIGCSE Bulletin · 2006
The release of Curriculum 2001 coupled with the increasing importance of the World Wide Web and the changes in pedagogy enabled by new technologies has made the choices about what to teach in the programming languages course and how to teach it more varied . Each of the members of this panel approaches their version of the course differently and will speak about their vision of the course, their style, their techniques and the materials they use. By sharing our versions of the course and generating discussion, we hope to provide others with additional ideas to consider including in their courses and to gain inspiration for inclusions in ours.
