Bellardinelli, Mario – 1971
The training of computer programers could be more efficient and more effective if two major changes were implemented. First, the analytical method of teaching programing and programing languages should be replaced by the global method. The former provides introductions to information processing and programing and then teaches the programing…

Phillips, Thomas Gordon, Jr. – 1971
The purpose of this study was to compare experimentally the relative effectiveness of two instructional media--a computer-based display unit and a programed-text booklet--for presenting selected instructional units of a common program for teaching FORTRAN IV. In conducting the study a common program for teaching FORTRAN was prepared and presented…

Rieber, Lloyd P. – 1986
This study was conducted to determine whether young children, given the experience of Logo programming, would acquire problem-solving skills and be able to transfer those skills to other areas. The study also investigated Logo's effectiveness in teaching certain fundamental geometric concepts to children who were supposedly not developmentally…

Friend, Jamesine – 1975
To explore the problem of designing an automated system for instruction in programing, and to study the problem-solving behavior of students, computer programs written by 40 college students as part of a CAI course in Algebraic Interpretive Dialogue were analyzed. The self-contained course consisted of 50 tutorial lessons; the analysis covers…
