CISE Educational Infrastructure: Multimedia Support for Introductory and Advanced Computer Science Education

9414227福莱多媒体课件提供了计算机科学学习和教学中的一些问题的解决方案。计算机科学的初学者面临着学习抽象的、看不见的概念，而不支持学习计算机科学的过程(例如，编程)。中级和高级学生通常通过实验(关于高级工具)和讲座学习，但没有受益于支持性学习环境(例如，结构和解释以及从实例到一般概念的联系)。佐治亚理工学院正在开发(1)通过使用软件可视化使抽象的、看不见的概念可见；(2)通过软件实现的脚手架支持过程的学习；以及(3)通过应用程序间通信设施将现有工具与教学结构相结合，以甚至在高级研究工具之外创造学习环境。所涉及的工作集中在三个领域：建立完善的教学工具，以促进编写这类模块；创建模块，用于计算机科学课堂并用作示范；以及对编写工具和学生模块进行彻底评价。***

9414227 Foley Multimedia courseware offers solutions to some of the problems in the learning and teaching of computer science. Beginning students in computer science are faced with learning abstract, invisible concepts without support for learning the processes of computer science (e.g., programming). Intermediate and advanced students typically learn through experiments (on advanced tools) and lecture, but without the benefit of supportive learning environments (e.g., structure and explanation and connections from instances to general concepts). Georgia Tech is developing courseware which (1) makes abstract, invisible concepts visible through use of software visualization; (2) supports the learning of process through software-realized scaffolding; and (3) integrates existing tools with pedagogical structure through inter-application communication facilities to create learning environments even out of advanced research vehicles. The work involved focuses on three areas: the construction of pedagogically sound tools to facilitate the authoring of such modules; the creation of modules to use in computer science classrooms and to serve as models; and thorough evaluation of both the authoring tools and student modules. ***
