Will There Ever Be Consensus on CS1?

چکیده
The choice of programming language, the approach by which students are taught and the software tools made available to students have been controversial issues in many ways. While there once was a consensus of some sort within the computer science education community, it is much more difficult to find common ground among those of us who teach introductory programming courses. The literature is explored and answers sought to the question of which language is optimum in teaching novice programmers, as well as the approach that ought to be used. Finally, the question of whether a consensus can be reached is addressed.

Do rats learn conditional independence?
If acquired associations are to accurately represent real relevance relations, there is motivation for the hypothesis that learning will, in some circumstances, be more appropriately modelled, not as direct dependence, but as conditional independence. In a serial compound conditioning experiment, two groups of rats were presented with a conditioned stimulus (CS1) that imperfectly (50%) predicte...
متن کاملSwimming Exercise in the Acute or Late Phase after Sciatic Nerve Crush Accelerates Nerve Regeneration
There is no consensus about the best time to start exercise after peripheral nerve injury. We evaluated the morphological and functional characteristics of the sciatic nerves of rats that began to swim immediately after crush nerve injury (CS1), those that began to swim 14 days after injury (CS14), injured rats not submitted to swimming (C), and uninjured rats submitted to swimming (S). After 3...

متن کاملExpanding Cs1: Applications across the Liberal Arts*
This paper will describe how applications in a variety of disciplines can enhance the teaching of the CS1 course. Examples will be given from a range of disciplines, including mathematics, economics, linguistics, history, biology, art and music. The applications will be linked to the computer science concepts being discussed. Such an approach broadens the appeal of the introductory course and a...
