Effectiveness of integrating program visualizations to a programming course
Essi Lahtinen, Tuukka Ahoniemi, Anniina Salo · 2007
To gain optimal benefits from program visualizations, their use in courses should be consistent. Instead of just covering all the topics they should also cover all the different learning situations and cognitive levels relating to the subject. We have integrated visualizations accordingly to our programming course and present some results about their usage in this paper. Our students showed a significant interest in using the visualization tool voluntarily.
