EIA-0086255Waite, William M.University of Colorado at Boulder CISE Educational Innovation: A Tool-Supported Programming Languages CurriculumThis project integrates research and development in software tools development into the undergraduate computer science program at this institution with special emphasis on computer-supported cooperative work and decision support. The project strategy involves "scaffolding" content-related problem solving skills and process-related group interaction skills by integrating a suite of tools, developed by the research community, into a three-course sequence required of all computer science majors. The key idea is that students are involved in realistic projects, beginning with their introductory courses, but an infrastructure selectively hides complexity from students. As students progress to more advanced courses, more of the complexity is revealed, until finally, students are involved in realistic projects involving significant collaborative work. The project has two components: (i) a software infrastructure that manages the complexity that students are exposed to, and (ii) a collection of tools that allow students to undertake larger projects than would normally be possible in a classroom setting. Students also use a web-based journal tool to keep track of significant milestones, problems, and other issues related to tasks assigned to them. The backbone of the collaborative system used in this project consists of a repository that contains code and implementation monitors for student projects, tools that students use when interacting with the materials in the repository, and a set of policies that control how students can interact with the repository contents. This project addresses the national need of educating software practitioners who can work on large, complex software systems in teams.

EIA-0086255 Waite，William M.科罗拉多大学博尔德分校CISE教育创新：工具支持的编程语言课程该项目将软件工具开发的研究和开发集成到该机构的本科计算机科学课程中，特别强调计算机支持的合作工作和决策支持。该项目的战略涉及“脚手架”的内容相关的问题解决技能和过程相关的小组互动技能，通过整合一套工具，由研究界开发，到所有计算机科学专业所需的三门课程序列。关键的想法是，学生参与现实的项目，从他们的入门课程开始，但基础设施有选择地隐藏复杂性的学生。随着学生进入更高级的课程，更多的复杂性被揭示出来，直到最后，学生参与到涉及重大协作工作的现实项目中。该项目有两个组成部分：（i）管理学生所接触的复杂性的软件基础设施，以及（ii）一系列工具，使学生能够承担比课堂环境中通常可能的更大的项目。学生还使用基于网络的日志工具来跟踪与分配给他们的任务相关的重要里程碑，问题和其他问题。本项目中使用的协作系统的主干由一个存储库组成，该存储库包含学生项目的代码和实现监视器，学生在与存储库中的材料交互时使用的工具，以及一组控制学生如何与存储库内容交互的策略。该项目解决了国家对教育软件从业者的需求，这些从业者可以在团队中处理大型复杂的软件系统。
