Integrating Algorithm Visualization into Computer Science Education

AbstractProposal 0341148 Integrating Algorithm Visualization into Computer Science EducationGrand Valley State UniversityScott Grissom该项目将汇集来自三个机构的经验丰富的开发人员，使用算法可视化工具JHAVE开发一套用于教学数据结构和算法的材料。这些材料和工具将支持学生在课堂外积极参与学习的工作。该项目将在头两年根据外部评审员的形成性评价和课堂经验开发新材料并改进现有材料。在第二年和第三年，该项目将提供讲习班，培训教师如何使用开发的材料和如何创建自己的材料。讲习班参与者将在教学中使用项目材料，并将为额外的评估做出贡献。预期的项目成果包括一个出版的学生实验室手册，一个高质量的基于Web的可视化数字图书馆，以及一个教师指南，描述使用这些材料的最佳实践。

AbstractProposal 0341148Integrating Algorithm Visualization into Computer Science EducationGrand Valley State UniversityScott GrissomThis project will bring together experienced developers from three institutions to develop a suite of materials for teaching data structures and algorithms using the algorithm visualization tool JHAVE. These materials and the tool will support student work in active, engaged learning outside the classroom. The project will develop new materials and refine existing materials during its first two years, based on formative evaluation by outside reviewers and experiences in the classroom. In the second and third years the project will provide workshops that train faculty on how to use the developed materials and how to create their own materials. Workshop participants will use project materials in their teaching and will contribute to additional evaluation. Expected project outcomes include a published student laboratory manual, a digital library of high quality Web-based visualizations, and an instructor's guide describing best practices in using these materials.
