Most-cited papers in ACM SIGCSE Bulletin

Exploring the role of visualization and engagement in computer science education

Thomas L. Naps, Guido Rößling, Vicki L. Almstrum et al. · 24 Jun 2002

Visualization technology can be used to graphically illustrate various concepts in computer science. We argue that such technology, no matter how well it is designed, is of little educational value unless it engages learners in an active learning activity. Drawing on a review of experimental studies of visualization effectiveness, we motivate this position against the…

Failure rates in introductory programming

Jens Bennedsen, Michael E. Caspersen · 1 Jun 2007

It is a common conception that CS1 is a very difficult course and that failure rates are high. However, until now there has only been anecdotal evidence for this claim. This article reports on a survey among institutions around the world regarding failure rates in introductory programming courses. The article describes the design of the…

Leon E. Winslow · 1 Sep 1996

Can we turn novices into experts in a four year undergraduate program? If so, how? If not, what is the best we can do? While every teacher has his/her own opinion on these questions, psychological studies over the last twenty years have started to furnish scientific answers. Unfortunately, little of these results have been incorporated…

A multi-national study of reading and tracing skills in novice programmers

Raymond Lister, Elizabeth Adams, Sue Fitzgerald et al. · 28 Jun 2004

A study by a ITiCSE 2001 working group ("the McCracken Group") established that many students do not know how to program at the conclusion of their introductory courses. A popular explanation for this incapacity is that the students lack the ability to problem-solve. That is, they lack the ability to take a problem description, decompose…
