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

A Computational Science Agenda for Programming Language Research [PDF]

open access: yesProcedia Computer Science, 2014
AbstractScientific models are often expressed as large and complicated programs. These programs embody numerous assumptions made by the developer (e.g., for differential equations, the discretization strategy and resolution). The complexity and pervasiveness of these assumptionsmeans that often the only true description of the model is the software ...

Introductory Computer Science Course by Adopting Many Programming Languages

open access: yesAnais do XXXII Simpósio Brasileiro de Informática na Educação (SBIE 2021), 2021
Teaching programming logic by means of a single Programming Language (PL) may lead the whole process to a particular syntax and specific libraries. In order to let every student choose their preferred PL we have developed a method that includes didactic material in many PLs by means of notebooks in Colab.
