Computer Science (31)Through a collaboration of Grand Valley State University, Alma College, and the University of Wisconsin/Oshkosh, this project explores the use of the algorithm visualization (AV) tool JHAVE on student understanding of computer algorithms. We are refining a suite of existing AV resources, each of which consists of a visualization, a text description of the algorithm, and questions that are presented to the students as they interactively explore the algorithm. We are conducting usability studies of the resources on all campuses in order to ensure portability of our results.We are focusing on evaluation of the results of these resources using student surveys, faculty surveys and examinations which will allow for cross-institution comparisons. We anticipate using a working group format to dissemination and enhance our results.

计算机科学 (31)通过大谷州立大学、阿尔玛学院和威斯康星大学/奥什科什分校的合作，该项目探讨了算法可视化 (AV) 工具 JHAVE 的使用对学生对计算机算法的理解。我们正在完善一套现有的 AV 资源，每个资源都包含可视化、算法的文本描述以及在学生交互式探索算法时向他们提出的问题。我们正在对所有校园的资源进行可用性研究，以确保我们的结果的可移植性。我们的重点是通过学生调查、教师调查和考试来评估这些资源的结果，以便进行跨机构比较。我们预计使用工作组的形式来传播和增强我们的成果。
