C-Sheep: Controlling Entities in a 3D Virtual World as a Tool for Computer Science Education [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
One of the challenges in teaching computer science in general and computer programming in particular is to maintain the interest of students, who often perceive the subject as difficult and tedious. To this end, we introduce C-Sheep, a mini-language-like

The Chemistry Between High School Students and Computer Science [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2014
Computer science enrollments have started to rise again, but the percentage of women undergraduates in computer science is still low. Some studies indicate this might be due to a lack of awareness of computer science at the high school level. We present our experiences running a 5-year, high school outreach program that introduces information about ...
