关于主动和协作学习的好处及其在计算机科学课程中的使用已经有很多研究。随着课堂技术变得越来越普遍，开发支持这些技术使用的系统是很自然的。我们开发了这样一个系统，作为 Classroom Presenter [2] 的扩展，Classroom Presenter 是一个基于平板电脑的演示系统。在我们的系统中，学生（或学生组）配备了平板电脑，并在讲座期间的不同时刻被要求解决问题或回答问题。学生通过在平板电脑上写下他们的解决方案并以无线方式提交给教师来做出回应。教师可以查看所有学生的回答，选择一个或多个要向全班显示的回答，并在显示回答时用墨水对其进行注释。学生的回答可以保存以供教师在讲完课后查看，也可以通过电子方式提供给学生。在本文中，我们描述了该系统以及我们在 2003 年秋季在圣地亚哥大学的两个课程（CS1 和计算机伦理学）中使用该系统的初步经验。
There has been much research on the benefits of active and collaborative learning and on its use in computer science courses. As classroom technology becomes more prevalent it is natural to develop systems that support the use of these techniques. We have developed such a system as an extension to Classroom Presenter [2], a Tablet PC-based presentation system. In our system students (or groups of students) are equipped with tablet computers and at various points during the lecture, are asked to solve a problem or respond to a question. Students respond by writing their solution on the tablet and submitting it wirelessly to the instructor. The instructor can view all student responses, select one or more to display to the class, and annotate responses with ink as they are being displayed. Student responses can be saved for review after lecture by the instructor or made available electronically to the students. In this paper we describe the system and our initial experiences using the system in two classes (CS1 and Computer Ethics) at the University of San Diego in Fall 2003.
