Lokkila, Erno; Christopoulos, Athanasios; Laakso, Mikko-Jussi – Journal of Information Systems Education, 2023
Educators who teach programming subjects are often wondering "which programming language should I teach first?" The debate behind this question has a long history and coming up with a definite answer to this question would be farfetched. Nonetheless, several efforts can be identified in the literature wherein pros and cons of mainstream…

Gutiérrez-Cárdenas, Juan – Journal of Information Systems Education, 2020
In the current literature, there is limited evidence of the effects of teaching programming languages using two different paradigms concurrently. In this paper, we present our experience in using a multiparadigm and multiprogramming approach for an Introduction to Programming course. The multiparadigm element consisted of teaching the imperative…

Shmallo, Ronit Shmallo; Shrot, Tammar – Journal of Information Systems Education, 2020
A class diagram is one of the most important diagrams of Unified Modeling Language (UML) and can be used for modeling the static structure of a software system. Learning from errors is a teaching approach based on the assumption that errors can promote learning. We applied a constructive approach of using errors in designing a UML class diagram in…
