项目摘要

This IUSE Engaged Student Learning project aims to serve the national interest by developing, implementing, and studying an instructional method that benefits students at risk of failure or dropping an introductory course in programming. The future workforce will require or benefit from programming knowledge, which means that most, if not all, students should successfully complete an initial programming course. This project builds on prior work that developed, implemented, and assessed the effectiveness of learning programming using subgoal labels and provided evidence that students who learned with subgoal labels perform better on initial assessments, and are less likely to fail or drop the course. This project extends that work by recruiting and training additional instructors to use subgoal instructional materials, and to develop, and evaluate, additional instructional materials using the programing language Java.The instructional materials that will be developed in Java will cover additional programming topics such as inheritance, polymorphism, and recursion. Instructional materials will include worked examples, practice problems, and assessments, all implemented in eBooks for maximum usage. By expanding the use, topics, and programming language within the instructional materials, further evidence of improved student learning and retention will be generated. Comparison of the initial subgoal results with those from more advanced Java topics and Python subgoals will be evaluated. The NSF IUSE: EHR Program supports research and development projects to improve the effectiveness of STEM education for all students. Through the Engaged Student Learning track, the program supports the creation, exploration, and implementation of promising practices and tools.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

这个敬业的学生学习项目旨在通过开发，实施和研究一种教学方法来满足国家利益，该方法使有失败风险或删除编程入门课程的学生受益。未来的劳动力将需要或从编程知识中受益，这意味着大多数（如果不是全部）学生应该成功完成初始编程课程。该项目建立在先前的工作基础上，该工作开发，实施和评估了使用子目标标签学习编程的有效性，并提供了证据表明，使用子目标学习的学生在初步评估方面的表现更好，并且不太可能失败或放弃课程。该项目通过招募和培训其他教师使用亚目标教学材料，并使用编程语言Java开发和评估其他教学材料。教学材料将包括工作示例，实践问题和评估，所有这些都在电子书中实施，以最大程度地使用。通过在教学材料中扩展使用，主题和编程语言，将产生进一步改善学生学习和保留的证据。将评估最初的子目标结果与更先进的Java主题和Python子目标的比较。 NSF IUSE：EHR计划支持研发项目，以提高所有学生STEM教育的有效性。通过参与的学生学习轨道，该计划支持有希望的实践和工具的创建，探索和实施。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并被认为是值得通过基金会的知识分子优点和更广泛的影响评估的评估来支持的。
