Teaching students how to program can
be a challenging task. Unfortunately, there are few tools that provide
pedagogical support for teaching and learning programming. Working with
our own first year computer science curriculum at UVic,
GILD
(Groupware
enabled Integrated Learning and Development)
seeks to rectify this lack by creating an integrated learning and
development plug-in for Eclipse.
The GILD team is
made up of members from UVic's Computer-Human Interaction Software
Engineering Lab (CHISEL), Software Engineering
Global
interAction Laboratories (SEGAL), and VIEW research
groups. Members of IBM's Centre for Advanced Studies
complete the team. Our work builds on the existing Eclipse IDE
and its associated plug-ins, as well as borrows concepts from web-based
learning tools and collaborative desktop technologies to enhance
learning in both co-located and distributed settings.
