the development of: 1. a taxonomy of problems, i.e., a
classification scheme which groups problems into
classes based on specific criteria, and 2. a set of
plans, i.e., abstractions, each of which captures the
essential features of a class of problems, and
corresponding solution programs. We begin by developing
a scheme for classifying the problems usually offered
as exercises in introductory LISP courses. We then
examine the LISP programs which solve problems in the
various classes and abstract higher level structures
called 'plans.' Here we view a plan as a program
template plus comments describing the goals and reasons
for the various expressions in the template. Next, we
build on the set of plans to include new problems.
Finally, we speculate briefly on the utility of our
taxonomy with respect to programming in languages such
as FORTRAN, APL, or PASCAL.",

is part of most of computer science undergraduate
curricula. With the advance of microcomputers into
small business and engineering firms even management
information systems and engineering majors are

in 1978 to upgrade this sophomore course in computer
fundamentals. The goal was to make the small computer
an integral part of the course's laboratory. The task
was to create a laboratory providing hands-on computing
to reinforce concepts in the areas of 1. computer
organization, assembly language programming, and
architecture; 2. computer operation; 3.
hardware/software interfaces; and 4. operating systems.
To accomplish these goals, the three phases of the
project were in hardware, software, and curriculum
development. Before the project began, the course
reflected the outline of curriculum course B2 [1]. The
topics covered included the assembly process with one
and two pass assemblers; the use of absolute and
linking loaders; computer architectural details of
register, memory, and CPU organization; addressing
schemes; and input/output programming. Although these
topics are satisfactory, our methods of teaching them
were not. We used the University's main computer, the
Xerox Sigma 7, for the laboratory portion of the
course. The Sigma 7's operating system shielded the
student from the computer architecture. The system
posed difficulties of varying degrees in the
presentation of most of the topics and prevented any
real understanding of input/output programming.
Attempts to simulate input/output for the students met
with unenthusiastic responses.",

7, 8). These usually include an introduction to
assembler language and machine level programming of a
machine which is sometimes called the minimum

implemented models of which we are aware have been
constructed to operate in batch mode. After having used
such systems for some time, we felt that they too soon
introduced students to the aggravation of mispunched
cards and long waits for runs, only to discover minor
syntactic errors. We felt that the simple computer
model's pedagogic value would be significantly
increased by implementing it in the interactive mode.
In order to test this thesis, we have designed and
implemented such a system. Our interactive computer
model is named TOYCOM, an obvious acronym for toy
computer. TOYCOM is a submonitor-assembler-interpreter
which can be collectively called a simulator. It
presently runs as a submonitor under BASIC-PLUS, which
runs under the RSTS-E operating system of the medium to

solve certain allocation and scheduling problems in

to manage its own resources efficiently, and that once
identified, solutions to the problems must be
implemented on some computer architecture. In either

disposable programs are significant. Programs produced
by students in programming courses are by nature
disposable; they are disposed of at the end of the
term. This conflicts with the emphasis by many
instructors and textbooks on endurance, the converse of
disposablility. A danger of disposable programs is
their retention. Another danger is the failure to
consider the endurance required during the production
of that program. There is a domain of problems that can
be solved economically by disposable programs. This
domain is discussed and some heuristics are presented

necessary for persons involved in the software

presence or absence of certain features in programming
languages can affect the quality of programs produced.
A survey of language design features which characterize
some ``modern'' languages --- languages which have been
created for the design and implementation of reliable
software --- is given. These features include
abstraction, name protection, strong typing, structure
and ease of verification. Remarks are made concerning
how these features support high quality programs. Each
of these features is shown to be either a part of
PASCAL or to have its immediate history in PASCAL.
Since PASCAL is a widely available and well designed
language it is suggested that PASCAL provides a unique
language environment in which these features which
support high quality program construction can be
learned. Finally, it is remarked that it is not yet
clear which programming languages will dominate our
language culture of the future. However it is
reasonable to expect that reliable software will be a
priority, that the connections between good programs
and language features will continue to be made, and
that language features will develop along the lines
presented here. Information Systems graduates will be

computer languages and more sophisticated programming
aids have helped alleviate some problems associated

many of the suggested improvements in software
development have emphasized the role of the computer,
rather than the programmer, in the development process.
Researchers are beginning to realize that the ultimate
resolution of the software crisis will come only when
we understand the human processes involved in software
development. Computer program comprehension has been
one of the human processes which has been studied by
researchers. Two basic approaches have been used to
study program comprehension. Using the first approach,
an objective measure of comprehension is proposed based
on the author's suppositions about the sources of
complexity. A second approach used in the study of
program comprehension is to empirically investigate
factors which might affect comprehension. In the next
section, a methodology is proposed to measure the
comprehension of statements and programs. It is applied
to study expression complexity in section three and
selection statement complexity in section four.
Implications for teaching programming are described in
section five and the paper is concluded in section
six.",

method outlined is an attempt to change their generally
'convergent' attitudes into a more 'divergent' way of
tackling problems. One of the most wasteful features of
modern education is the vertical separation of
students, so that the collective wisdom acquired by one
generation is unavailable to the next. Merely talking
to those who have successfully overcome their problems
is a great encouragement, and the presence of a senior
acts as a catalyst in a group. One special feature of
the Brunel University position is that third and second
year students have experienced work periods as
``students.'' Few of the lectures can comment on this
aspect of the course from personal experience, so if
real guidance is to be given it must be from ``older''
students. These students will have assimilated the
group methods used in industry, commerce and research
and will be able to organize their group to pass on
their experience by example. Our attempt at vertical
integration involves treating all the students in a
less paternalistic fashion and one feature of this, is
to make the participation of senior students voluntary,
with no ``credits'' for work contributed. We hope that
as well as enjoying the experience, they will respond
and gain from the reflection on other subjects.",

abstract = "The computer science program in a liberal arts college
must meet a number of diverse needs. When the
curriculum allows for only four computer courses each
course must serve several functions. For example, the
introductory programming course often must satisfy the
need for computer literacy as well as serve more
advanced students who need to use the computer in their
own discipline. The Hamilton College program which
serves an academic community of 1600 students and about
130 faculty, has been evolving for four to five years.
Currently five to six hundred students use the computer
in some manner during the academic year, and almost one
third of the student body enroll in a programming
course before they graduate. We shall describe our
two-course programming sequence and the success that we
have had teaching it using a disciplined approach to
programming. Our first course is taught to students
whose primary motivation is general literacy and who do
not bring to it much in the way of general quantitative
or problem solving skills. We use, though, a
programming methodology that differs little from that
used by larger institutions for courses directed more
toward the concentrator in computer science. We argue
that structured programming is almost a necessity for
this audience. The very limited background of the
students requires both a systematic approach to problem
solving and a disciplined style of programming. The
second programming course must also solve some special
problems. Since we only offer two advanced courses, we
must include some of the material on data structures in
the second course. With a careful selection of topics,
we can lay the foundation for a discussion of file
structures or data base organization in an advanced
course. Our instructional goals for the sequence
include the encouragement of general computer literacy,
the teaching of programming techniques, the development
of problem solving skills, and the coverage of selected
advanced topics. We had to meet these goals without
making excessive technical demands on the instructional
staff.",

to purchase an entire computer for the price of a
terminal. Such a computer is necessarily limited in
scope; but it can serve admirably for the teaching of
programming at an elementary level, as well as handling
certain more advanced tasks. About a year and a half
ago, the Computer Committee of the Department of

continues to increase, institutions are finding it
necessary to improve existing computer facilities. Many
have chosen the ``distributive processing'' route
whereby one central location handles a major portion of
the workload of the schools connected to it, while each
of the schools maintain some stand-alone capability.
Schools are billed for work that is performed at the
network center. In particular, student jobs are
charged, whether individually or collectively, to a
particular school or department. It is, thus,
worthwhile to consider techniques for processing
student jobs which will keep operating costs of a
department to a minimum. This paper considers an
approach that the University of Tennessee-Chattanooga
(UTC) has taken to help minimize these costs. An
experiment was designed in which, for one semester,
students would continue to submit programs through the
card reader. The succeeding semester, jobs would be
submitted through terminals, i.e., no card punching
would be done and students would transmit to Knoxville
using the terminals. The ``bonus point'' method was
employed in both cases. The courses selected were
FORTRAN AND PL/I, the first two courses in the computer
science curriculum and the major users (from UTC) of
the network. The FORTRAN class used the WATFIV compiler
and included some usage of the structured constructs
available. Approximately seventy per cent of the
students enrolled in this course were in majors other
than computer science. The second course selected was
PL/I which used the PL/C compiler at UTK. Approximately
ten per cent of the students were non-computer science
majors.",

in Brazil was growing at a rate of 30\% per year, which
was higher than in European countries, the U. S. and
Japan, placing Brazil among the eight top world users
of computers.$^1$ By that time, only few Brazilian
Universities were offering courses in data processing.
The lack of a formal education structure resulted in
data processing positions being mainly filled with
people trained by manufacturers. The high demand for
data processing professionals, mainly in the top levels
of the career, became one of the Brazilian government's
concerns. Since Brazil is a developing nation,
resources had to be efficiently used and foreign
reserves could not be spent on equipments which were
not used to their full potential. Therefore, highly
qualified professional were needed. In view of these
facts, the Federal Government decided to support and
encourage the creation of professional data processing
programs, mainly at the Universities. The role of the
University in education is extremely important, since
it makes possible to improve the qualification of the
labor power and also to improve the education
professionals themselves. In 1973 and 1974, with the
support of the Federal Government, about 15 programs
for graduation of technicians in systems programming,
analysis and design have been created. Those programs,
with the duration of two years, were intended to be a
short term solution, providing a highly qualified labor
force. Besides the programs created directly by the
Government, several courses have been implemented at
Universities that assumed the task of preparing
qualified data processing man power, accomplishing
their social role. With this purpose, the Pontifical
Catholic University of Rio Grande do Sul, in 1974,
implemented an undergraduate' program in Information
Systems Analysis. The pioneering aspect rises from the
area involved, that of Information Systems.",

is employment. The two factors of employment are an
available position and a qualified applicant. For local
business, the majority of computer-related technical
positions are in data entry, operations, and
programming. The community college must be able to
prepare individuals to be qualified for some of these
careers. Lexington Technical Institute (LTI) is one of
thirteen institutions under the University of
Kentucky's Community College System. LTI offers
programs in many technical areas. Among them is a
Business Data Processing curriculum leading to as
Associate Degree in Applied Science. The intent of the
curriculum is to prepare individuals for careers in
computer programming for business applications. Other
state-supported institutions cover data entry and other
types of programming. Formal training for data entry is
given through local vocational schools. Formal training
for research and advanced programming positions is
given through the Computer Science Department at the
University of Kentucky. There is no institution
providing adequate formal training for computer
operations. The curriculum at LTI is oriented toward
preparing individuals for entry-level positions as
computer programmers within the Lexington area. To
ensure that an institution continues to provide a
relevant curriculum, the needs of local business must
be periodically reviewed (Little, 1977). A mailed
questionnaire was returned by 142 companies in the
Lexington area in 1975 (Hager, 1975). The important
facts identified were: 1. the predominant computer
languages (in decreasing order of use) were COBOL, RPG,
and Assembly language; 2. trend toward increased use of
BASIC timesharing systems; 3. a preference for an
education stressing business systems as well as
programming; 4. job opportunities enhanced by practical
experience. A follow-up survey was undertaken through
the support of the University of Kentucky's Community

to rewrite a ``Gordian knot'' program --- one which is
more than 50\% go to statements --- in the shortest
possible form. A twenty-line program of this character
is easy to construct, and gets the point across. Here
is an example, which may be solved either under the

to have ``hands on'' experience. This simulator, which
operates at the register transfer level, allows
students to gain experience of many different
architectures without recourse to many different
computers. This experience, in the first instance, is
gained by the students being able to run programs on
the simulated computers and then investigating the
state of the computer after each machine or micro
instruction. The design of these teaching computers is
chosen so that they demonstrate a particular
architectural detail. Subsequently students can design
their own computer systems and compare them with
simulations of commercially available computers.",

drawbacks with this approach. In our opinion, the
discussion of introductory computer concepts and
problem-solving techniques should precede the coverage
of the syntax of a programming language. It is also our
belief that basic data structure concepts should be
presented in the first course and discussed
independently of any particular programming language
considerations. Finally, we don't subscribe to the view
that teaching of programming styles should be delayed
until later courses. With these ideas in view, we
present in this paper the outline of a one-year
beginning course for the computer science undergraduate
degree program.",

one-third for a broad ``liberal arts'' component, and
one-third for free electives. A curriculum including
all of the mathematics suggested in ``Curriculum-68'',
all of the computer science now needed by an individual
wishing to devote his or her post-baccalaureate life to
computing, and a minimal number of necessary cognates
from other disciplines, would strain the traditional
concept of the conventional four-year liberal arts
degree. Thus, the only alternatives to moderation in
the mathematics component are moderation in the major
itself (unthinkable), extension of the curriculum to
five or more years, and/or conversion of the curriculum
to a professional degree, i.e., an engineering

system in which the student is insulated from the
machine by multiple layers of operating system
software, we have developed a microcomputer-based
lecture/lab course to teach CPU organization, digital
computer architecture, and assembly language
programming as a third undergraduate course in computer
science. By beginning with simple machine organizations
and simple assembly languages, and later on making a
transition toward more complex architectures and
languages, the transfer of knowledge and experience is
positive at every step. The same laboratory also
supports a graduate course in microcomputer systems
design which teaches hardware technology, component
specification, operating system design,
hardware/software tradeoffs, and practical applications
such as process control. This paper outlines the
motivation and justification for the project, and then
discusses the actual design of these courses and their
supporting laboratory. This project is supported in
part by two grants from the National Science
Foundation: SER-7915929 for the acquisition of the
microcomputer equipment and SER-8000802 for the
development of the undergraduate course material.",

non-professionals. In the near future most people will
be using them for entertainment and education both at
home and in school. Undoubtedly many of them will soon
discover that one of the main attractions of computers
is the programming of them. This development is going
to occur sooner if the programming environment is
appropriate for non-professional users. In order for
this to be a positive development from the point of
view of professionals the environment must satisfy
appropriately defined specifications. This presentation
attempts to outline some of the basic desirable
features of the non-professional user's environment. It
then shows the implications of this specification for
one of the essential components of these environments,
the definition, translation, and run-time
implementation of the preferred programming language.
It is postulated that if the environment is defined to
``optimally'' reflect user's needs and professional's
insights it will be accepted by the general public.",

ways to limit enrollments? (4) Are we pleased with the

Currently, the need for people with a solid foundation

however, it must be reevaluated periodically to ensure
that the course offerings are both current with respect

student who will be applying his acquired skills and
knowledge in industry, government, or university. One
topic area of information systems which has been,
largely, ignored until recently is data communications.
This field has been recognized as a valuable tool to
our students; therefore, it has been included as one of
the core requirements for our undergraduates. This
course stresses the management information systems
aspects of data communications. The pedagogical
objectives of the course are that the student be able
to analyze, design, implement, and evaluate data
communications applications in a business system
environment. The structure and content of such a data
communications course is presented. Sufficient detail
is given so that similar courses can be adapted to fit
into a computer science curriculum, with slight changes
in emphasis, or incorporated directly into an existing

manufacturers of computer equipment, software houses,

is a range of positions from systems programmer to
applications programmer to business systems analyst.
Figure 1 shows the organization chart of a medium sized

manufactures consumer products. Of the sixty five
positions which would require a degree in computer
science or data processing, in at most seven (perhaps
only two) of these positions would the traditional
computer science graduate be preferred (if the employer
had a choice). At the University of
Wisconsin-Whitewater our program is aimed at the large
number of positions where a business background is
helpful. In addition to introductory programming we
require three programming courses, two analysis and
design courses, a course in hardware and software
selection and a course including data base management.
In addition, all students must have at least 15 hours
of business courses including two accounting courses
and a management course. Our graduates have the
technical ability to be good programmers and/or systems
analysts, and they have the business background so that
they can talk to users in the users own language. In

abstract = "Introduction to digital circuits and computer
organization is usually a required course in computer
science curricula. The subject is often taught as a
textbook course although experience shows that students
enormously benefit from simple laboratory experiments
and enjoy them. Another form of contact with basic
physical realities is via computer simulation of
hardware. The use of simulation can not only replace
experiments if necessary but also add insight into
aspects of the function of hardware not easily
observable in the lab, such as the effect of delays and
noise and allow the study of phenomena that cannot be
observed such as data transfer between registers hidden
inside a component. Exposure to simulation also
introduces students to one major application of
computers --- simulation --- which is often some-what
neglected in computer science curricula. Moreover,
simulation is becoming an essential component of design
and student's perspective of the design process is
incomplete without some experience with it. Three main
reasons why hardware simulation is not usually used in
introductory hardware courses are the orientation of
typical hardware simulation languages towards the
professional designer and the resulting structure
poorly suited for education, the scarcity of easily
available, inexpensive, and portable languages, and the
lack of coverage of the subject in most textbooks on
hardware. A hardware simulation language called HARD
developed at Acadia University is an attempt to remedy
the above mentioned problems. It is designed
specifically for education. It includes features
typically required in a computer organization course,
namely simulation at the gate and RTL levels, and
simulation of delays and noise. The syntax is quite
flexible in that there are practically no reserved
words. The language is not based on any programming
language so that no previous experience with computers
is necessary. The structure of circuit descriptions is
natural and English-like. The translator and simulator
are interactive. The language allows modular
descriptions and their connections into multi-level
hierarchies as required by the problem. The system is
very portable since it is written in Pascal with a
minimal use of non-standard features. The language is
not as complete as a professional design tool since its
intended use is in education. It is, however, expected
that new features will be added to it in the future in
response to the feedback from the system's users.",

The factors affecting the attendee response to each of
the five offerings and the course format as currently
evolved are discussed. Under the titles of ``Small
Business Computers: Potentials and Pitfalls'' and
``Computers for Small Business: What, why, and How?'',
this short seminar has attracted over 80 participants.
The objective of the seminar is to help a small
business person decide if a computer is a feasible
solution to his problem, and, if so, how to go about
using the computer. The course emphasizes the failures
as well as the successes that can be anticipated in
trying to install a computer in a small business. Case
studies and ``war stories'' have been found to be some
of its best received features. All offerings of the
seminar have been publicized primarily through the
enclosure of a leaflet in the monthly mailing of the
local chamber of commerce organizations (Cincinnati,
Ohio, and Northern Kentucky). Under the heading of
``Who Should Attend'', the leaflet states:This seminar
will be of interest to small business owners and
operators concerned with computer acquisition and use.
Others with interest but no job related need in the
field are also encouraged to participate.",

brief questionnaire was sent to almost all such

to the chairman of the Computer Science department. The
survey attained an exceptional response rate of 82\%,
with 187 responses out of 228 questionnaires sent. The
primary finding of the survey was that, on the average,
approximately two-thirds of student jobs are submitted
from interactive terminals and one-third are submitted
on punch cards. The level of interactive computing
support was found to be largely independent of
university enrollment or number of computer science
majors, and modestly dependent on the stature of the
institution. An unrelated finding was that, on the
average, the primary computing facilities are open for
student use 19 hours per day.",

of providing meaningful and effective educational

departments caught in their own staffing problems have
not given much attention to precollege teacher training

are experiencing very little turnover in staff. Even
when these schools have an open position, individuals
entering the teaching field have little or no training
in computer science. Yet the need for precollege
teachers with a computer science background exists and
is growing larger each year. This paper addresses this
crisis in computer science education at the precollege

science courses; but what has been written has been
about how to present programming concepts to students
who are new to computer science, about structured
programming and GOTO-less programming as well as about
the contents of those beginning courses. Design and
programming methodology is usually left for a specific
course given to junior or senior students. Even though
structured programming and some approaches to problem
solving are taught, very often methodology is ignored
or barely mentioned. And when students do take a course
on systems design, the view of methodology they get is
obscured by the usually bad habits they have developed
during their studies and in their programming projects.
This has left the universities open to criticism by
industry for not producing people ready for work, or
for producing people with bad working habits who have a
hard time adjusting to the standards of established
organizations. Efforts to remedy that problem have been
sporadic, some teachers did introduce methodology in a
beginning course, but only to see their efforts reduced
to nothing for lack of follow-up. An experiment to
integrate methodology into beginning courses has been
made at UQAM where the number of computer science
students (more than 900 students in two computer
science programs) has made it absolutely necessary to
give people good working habits so that the scarce
computer resources are used in the most efficient
way.",

not teaching state of the art techniques, they tended
to vary in content considerably from quarter to
quarter, depending on the instructor. The subject
``systems analysis and design'' covers a wide variety
of material, far too much to be dealt with
comprehensively in any reasonable time span. It was
felt that the objectives for the courses could best be
met by concentrating on structured analysis and design
methodologies (particularly as they applied to the

structure charts is not accurately recorded. Their
first appearance in a textbook was in Bowles (1) who
cites Doran and Tate (2) as their originators. Bowles
used the name structure diagram. Jensen and Tonies (3)
presented some very similar design notation which they
called schematic logic. They claimed that their work
was a modification of some previous design methodology
due to Jackson. (4) Jensen later presented a
modification of schematic logic and called the new
notation processing logic trees. (5) The particular
geometric shapes used in the structure charts of this
paper are the same as those suggested in a forthcoming
textbook by one of the authors (6). This tutorial
presents structure charts as a design tool which has
many desirable characteristics for students of computer
science as well as for practicing software designers.",

computer classes, the computer departments frequently
having to apply increasingly tough standards in order
to thin out the ranks. Therefore, the strong desire to

a series of discussion papers for the groups, each
including a problem to be solved. The group is expected
to investigate the topic, produce an exact
specification of the problem, provide an algorithm to
solve the problem, an implementation of the algorithm,
and documentation including a discussion of
implications and generalizations. This form of peer
instruction has improved performance of both the better
and the poorer students, and plagiarism is no longer a
problem. (Students who do not do their share of the
work are liable to be excluded by their group.) They
also investigate topics with much greater thoroughness
and appear to obtain a deeper understanding. The group
experience is valuable training for working on projects
in industry. The tutorial will outline how to organize
such a course and will discuss case studies.",

would be very helpful to a large number of students.
While it is suggested that these fundamentals can best
be learned in a pre-college setting, for those students
lacking such a background (currently the vast
majority), it is argued that an articulation course
must be available. It is strongly suggested that an
excellent prescription for the necessary course
materials is given in the ACM ES$^3$ report by Rogers

verification methods using current technology to
large-scale problems will be discussed, based on actual
experience in using the technology in such areas as
database systems, operating systems, and communications
systems. Eric C. Hehner The Dijkstra/Gries approach to
program development is an important and useful
component of the computer science curriculum. Good
programmers use this approach informally, and
instruction in the formal methods can provide the
understanding that will improve average programmers.
Although the subject matter is currently taught at the
senior/graduate level at Toronto, it should be taught
earlier, for example during the second year. Teaching
the material earlier does require a different approach,
however, and good student preparation in logic would be
essential for success. Harlan D. Mills Formal methods
and a large structured set of principles for program
design and verification should be taught early in the
computer science curriculum. Instruction in programming
can be improved by teaching a large set of small
principles, and teaching by apprenticeship. Students
learn easier and faster when they are freshmen than
later after they have become hackers.",

abstract = "In this paper I have attempted to point out some ways
in which an instructor can sensitize students to the
human-computer interface aspect of programming. By
discussing this topic at the introductory level,
students are made aware early on both of how important
this aspect of programming is and, at the same time,
how difficult and time-consuming it is to produce
quality interface. Most of the suggestions for lecture
or discussion presented here can be covered fairly
briefly, without taking too much time away from the
discussion of the syntax and semantics of the
programming language or languages being covered in the
course. Just how much time is devoted to the topic of
interface is, of course, at the discretion of the
instructor. The suggestions for project assignments
also require small additions or modifications to the
traditional programming assignments. Furthermore, these
ideas can be incorporated into more advanced courses.
As the students' programming abilities increase and
they are able to produce more and more complex code,
the dimensions for evaluation of user interface can be
broadened. None of the foregoing is meant to imply that
it would not be desirable to have students take a
course specifically devoted to issues in human-computer
interface. It would certainly be appropriate for
students to pursue this topic in depth, and a special
course such as the one outlined by Shneiderman [6],
would be excellent. The important goal at the
introductory level is to make students aware that user
interface is an important aspect of good programming.
If they gain this awareness at the outset, it will
pervade their thinking so that one does not have to
correct their orientation later in the curriculum, or
later still, after they begin their professional
career.",

abstract = "Effective teaching of Systems Analysis, Information
Systems, or Management Information Systems requires
innovative approaches that go beyond the traditional
classroom approaches. The panel will present ideas that
have worked successfully and can possibly be utilized
by other departments. The approaches center on the
application of learned material into a setting that
will allow the student to experience the ``work place''
environment. Actual projects done in a team setting is
the real key to improving the students learning of the
subject material in systems analysis and design
courses. This approach involves the skills of working
in a team, writing, and presentation. The graduate
gains experience and therefore preparation for the
eventual job they will be doing from their class
projects. Requirements of the faculty increase somewhat
in this type of approach and the panel will discuss
these issues also. Robert A. Barrett, Moderator In the
area of systems analysis, information systems, and
management information systems, we have in past
symposiums presented papers that outline the courses
and the course contents. We have not dealt with some of
the approaches or methodologies of student assignments
and work. Our department has an advisory committee that
provides input/guidance to the needs that business and
industry have in regards to the individual who is
working as a programmer, programmer/analyst, or systems
analyst. One of the major issues that is being
discussed (and has been over the past two years) is the
writing, speaking and team concept abilities of the
working professional. We have incorporated many of the
needs in the individual classes to enhance and
reinforce the learning of the student in these three
areas. We put the student into teams as much as
possible and require as many written reports and
presentations as possible. Ernest A. Kallman At Bentley
the systems design course is a capstone course for
seniors only. Its objective, beyond the obvious purpose
of covering the systems design function, is to help the
student make the transition from textbook understanding
of information systems to actual real world experience.
To that end some part of the course is given over to
topics such as installation organization and
management. To add further realism a team project is
assigned which requires the observation of an actual
computer installation in some organization other than
Bentley College. John F. Schrage The curriculum follows
concepts noted in the major computer curricula studies
from ACM on both undergraduate and graduate levels. The
DPMA model curriculum also influenced the program in
information systems. The programs provide training and
education in both programming and systems with
specializations somewhat determined by each student.
The number of systems courses has expanded in the last
three years. The systems concepts are presented,
reinforced in intermediate courses, and culminated in a
real-world project for both levels of students. The
capstone situation for all students in the computer
area is a real-life problem and solution. Students form
into teams of three or four and find an area company
which has a systems-oriented problem applicable for
solution within the ten-week term. The team approach is
used in most of the courses, but the independence of
students in this course shows more on adapting for the
job market. Team work is done in all courses after the
introduction course in concepts and programming.",

courses in DBMS which involve student projects using
commercially available database management systems. A
list of panelists and a synopsis of their topics
follows. John C. Peck, Chairman Clemson University has
used IDMS (a network model by Cullinane Database
Systems, Inc.) for the last 8 years in the senior level
introductory course in database management. Although
all three popular models (network, hierarchical, and
relational) are covered in the course a team project (3
or 4 member teams) using IDMS in an online environment
is assigned to reinforce the ideas central to all three
models. The pros and cons of using large mainframes for
such a course are discussed. James R. Driscoll The
University of Central Florida has undertaken a project
to implement fundamental versions of all three popular
DBMS models on low-end microcomputer configurations.
Dr. Driscoll will discuss the development of RQL
(Relational Query Language) and RMS (Relational Menu
Systems) which are used at UCF. Pentti A. Honkonen
Georgia State University has access to three database
management systems for its course in DBMS. Dr. Honkonen
will compare the Instructional Information Management
System, Univac's DMS/90 and The Relational Information
Management Systems (RIMS) as they pertain to
instructional use in a university environment. William
Shay The University of Wisconsin at Green Bay offers a
project-oriented course in DBMS utilizing a CODASYL
type DBMS from Xerox called the Extended Data
Management System (EDMS). In this course each student
designs, loads, and processes against a real database.
The nature of the project and the experiences
encountered during the past 4 years the course has been
taught will be discussed.",

abstract = "William Mitchell, Moderator This panel is convened so
that the issues inherent in retraining strategies may
be debated by representatives of the formal faculty
retraining programs. The speakers will address the
masters level retraining of college faculty from other
disciplines via summer coursework, an approach which is
markedly different from the traditional pattern of
formal re-education because it assumes no discontinuity
in a faculty member's service to his college. This
approach is obviously most advantageous for both
college and the participating faculty member, and it
also permits the design of special programs to serve
this unique audience. Given the popularity of this
format it is a matter of great concern to the
discipline that these special programs be credible.
Carter Bays The Computer Science Summer Institute at
the University of South Carolina was conceived in 1979
and has attempted to offer, over a period of 3 summers,
the majority of the coursework required for the M.S.
degree. The program has been successful in that
approximately 20 faculty from 2 and 4 year schools in
South Carolina have completed, or nearly completed
their M.S. in Computer Science. Unfortunately in many
cases the retrained faculty have left their schools and
acquired better positions elsewhere. Stephen Mitchell A
combination of several factors has resulted in the now
well-publicized teacher shortage in computer education.
The factors include expanding student enrollments,
industry demand for trained personnel, and the related
``brain-drain'' of teachers to industry. Innovative and
flexible programs are needed for the necessary
retraining of teachers. In considering resources for
re-training, key issues are: program quality,
objectivity, and visibility. Stanley Franklin Our
program is intended as a stopgap measure. The junior
colleges and four-year colleges in our system cannot
hire traditionally trained computer scientists. Yet
they face increasing demand from students for computer
science courses. We intend to retrain faculty from
other disciplines to teach the beginning computer
science courses. We'll use a two-summer format and an
existing degree program originally designed for high
school teachers. No education courses are included; our
students will all have successful college teaching
experience. We think of this program as serving an
interim need for the next few years. As better trained
computer scientists become more plentiful, demand for
this kind of training will diminish, and the program
can be discontinued. Ed Dubinsky In Summer 1983 an
Institute for Retraining Mathematicians to Teach
Computer Science will be established at Clarkson
College under the auspices of the joint ACM/MAA
Committee on Retraining for Computer Science. This is
the initial implementation in a project, which has been
in development over the past two and one-half years, to
deal with the shortage of college teachers of computer
science. The panel presentation will discuss some of
the history, present goals and future plans along with
some of the features of the present implementation.
Richard Austing I do feel that retraining is important
to small colleges. In fact it will be a necessity if
the colleges are to maintain computer science programs.
They will not be able to compete for people who have
PhD's in computer science. Colleges will have to find
PhD's in other disciplines who have (or who are willing
to acquire) backgrounds in computer science. Of course,
these faculty members will need continued training.
Colleges should encourage retraining of faculty from a
number of departments, including non-science ones. A
good mix of interest can produce a fruitful environment
for a computer science department which will service
the entire campus and the surrounding community.",

in this course is unique in concept and approach; and
is the focus of this paper. The underlying basis for
the approach taken is that PASCAL is an extremely small
language; therefore, very easy to master. Once a
student has mastered a programming language it is easy
to compare other languages against the 'mastered'
language. Also, it is much easier for the student to
learn new programming languages once one is mastered.

improvement during the last few years. This improvement

guiding principles are needed. This paper introduces
the concept of generalized programs and described how
they may be used as a guide in the creation of correct
computer programs. The method is discussed as it
relates to a first course in Computer Science, but the
idea could be applicable elsewhere in the curriculum.
Basically, the idea is to partition the problems
usually solved in the first course into groups such
that the programs for solving the problems in each
group will have common features. It was not found
possible to find such a group for every problem, but a
majority of the problems in the first course could be
grouped in this manner. For each group a generalized
program is written which captures the common features
of the group. When given a problem to solve, if the
student can ascertain the group to which it belongs,
then the generalized program for this group will give
guidance for programming the solution.",

and non-linear recursive algorithms. While some of the
algorithms may have been seen previously in other
courses, often the problem solving process involved in
developing the algorithms is not treated. Thus, the
course greatly enhances the students' understanding of
the art of problem solving. In addition, it exposes the
students to many important algorithms which they will
find useful both in later computer science courses and
in their professional careers.",

hand, one finds numerous reports and documents that

theoretical papers are, more often than not, couched in
advanced mathematics, not easily accessible to
engineers and/or Electronic Data Processing (EDP)

related to system modeling,``queuing
model,''``simulation method,'' and ``statistical
analysis'' are the most important quantitative
techniques. This paper provides a cohesive introduction
to the modeling and analysis techniques for evaluating

decision to use a commercial DBMS, an instructional

decision are discussed. In addition, the problems of
obtaining a commercial DBMS on an academic budget for
instructional purposes, and of creating a reasonably
realistic database are discussed. Finally, an
evaluation of the initial quarter's use is presented.
The environment for this discussion is the Georgia
State University College of Business Administration
Information Systems Department graduate database
course. This course is offered three times a year with
approximately 20 students per offering. DBMS are
extensively being used in business areas [2,9,14,15].
As more DBMS are being installed, the sophistication
and complexity of these systems is increasing
[9,12,13]. This fact makes it imperative for the
graduates in the Information Systems field to have a
solid understanding of a DBMS and how it is used in a
business environment. Without actual experience using a
DBMS one cannot fully understand systems of such
complexity. This understanding cannot be obtained from
text reading and lecture. This situation is analogous
to learning a programming language without actually
ever using a computer.",

approach was acknowledged in 1978 as one of four common
methods of teaching college-level introductory computer
science [2]. Finally, in 1981 and 1982, this method, or
a variant of it, was widely proclaimed [3] [4] [5]. We
adopted this approach of instruction in our
introductory course in 1977 and the results have been
less than spectacular. We don't make this point to
discredit the approach; its existence has made manifest
the necessity of teaching problem solving in an
introductory course. Rather, we believe that the added
teaching of a separate problem solving methodology is
not by itself sufficient.",

abstract = "Most of us that teach in the numerical
analysis/numerical methods area have been relying on
large mainframes for years as a valuable tool in
solving our problems of any size. Thus when the micros
came along a few years back our natural inclination was
to avoid them since they appeared to have nothing new
to offer us. We perhaps thought ``How could such a
small machine compete with the real number crunchers we
had become enamored with?'' However, we only have to
read the popular press to see the impact they are
having all around us. Hence, it became imperative that
we do look into the possibility that maybe they can
make some valuable contributions. As Kelch and Hansen
[1] implied in their article, there are many small
colleges that can ill-afford the cost of a mainframe or
even a mini but still they wish to teach meaningful
courses. Aside from this perhaps there are concepts
that can be illustrated in a more meaningful fashion
even if a super-mini or mainframe is available. It was
in this later vein that this project was undertaken.
After viewing the rather amazing graphics that one
could realize on an Apple II in a game-playing
environment, the author decided that there must be some
way that they could be used in a meaningful way in a
classroom or course. The purpose of this report is to
discuss the way that the Apple II graphics were used to
display several popular numerical algorithms. It should
be pointed out here that there is nothing special about
the Apple II and the graphics did not have to be done
in color to illustrate most of the important points. It
was simply the case that the author used the type of
machine that was most readily available to him. It was
the author's feeling that beginning numerical methods
students could more readily relate to many of the
techniques if they had a visual image to relate to. The
old adage ``a picture is worth a thousand words'' comes
to mind. Although it is possible to give graphical
illustrations in a textbook and in class, typically
this is such a time-consuming task that one can only
look at a few special cases. It was the plan of the
author to allow the programs to accept a variety of
functions for actual implementation by the user. The
student will be able to alter various parameters as he
runs an algorithm which will allow him to answer
questions like ``What if I do the following?''",

concerned primarily with two such problems: (1) the

and (2) the difficulty instructors have motivating and
explaining complex topics with currently available
instruction tools and techniques. The paper first
reviews the involvement of educational institutions in
the evolution of computing. It then briefly surveys
recent experiments in powerful personal computing. It
describes an experiment in the application of new
personal computer technology at Brown University which
addresses the two educational problems noted above. It
then outlines in detail the initial courseware for the
environment. Finally, it discusses what changes in

especially true in our software projects and can be

aptitude in computer programming may be predicted
through measuring certain cognitive skills, personality
traits and past academic achievement. The primary
purpose of this study was to build a practical and
reliable model for predicting success in programming,
with hopes of better counseling students. Results from
correlating predictor variables with a student's final
numerical score confirmed past studies which showed the
diagramming and reasoning tests of the Computer
Programmer Aptitude Battery and a student's GPA to be
the predictors most closely associated with success. A
multiple regression equation developed from 5
predictors correctly classified 61 of 79 students
(77.2\%) into low and high aptitude groups.",

tremendous growth of software based systems, a need to
retrain current technical staff, the issue of
programmer productivity, the lack of established
educational programs in software engineering at local
colleges, and the integration of theory with practical
requirements are among the major factors which force us
to implement an in-house educational program in
software engineering. It was learned from personal
interviews and several surveys that there is a general
consensus among Hazeltine management that there is a
need to establish a uniform approach to the software
development process, and that education and training
are essential parts in any effort to improve our
software capabilities. This article describes a long
term plan to meet the education and training needs.
Analysis of the personal interviews, surveys of
managers and engineers, and a literature search have
made possible the identification of company needs and
requirements and target populations. A three-part
program is proposed, a system approach to meet the
diverse needs of executives, managers, and engineers.
The Executive Program, which will cover topics such as
the nature of software related project management and
development and its critical or ``risky'' aspects,
consists of an intensive one day seminar for corporate
executives annually. The Management Program, which will
help managers to understand and apply procedures and
techniques necessary to the cost effective development
of high quality embedded software products, will
consist of up to six seminar/workshops each year. The
Engineering Program, which will deal mainly with
teaching engineers how to make effective use of the
modern tools and techniques employed in the software
development process, will consist of a combination of
workshops, in-house courses and recommended graduate
courses at local universities, taking advantage of the
existing tuition reimbursment program.",

transformation rules required to translate SQL
expressions into equivalent QUEL expressions, decompose
SQL expressions into parse trees and perform
optimization of expressions based on relational algebra
are shown. An experimental relational DBMS using the
above approach is currently under development at the
University of Houston. It supports various
nonprocedural query languages within a single system,
using a unified database dictionary. Cross-translation
between various query languages is allowed. The results
of every important phase of the query transformation
during its execution are interactively available to the

students found that tutorials prepared them well for
coursework (writing complete COBOL programs) which was
considered the most beneficial activity of the course.
Tutorials were seen to expose the students to
alternative solutions which is an essential ingredient
of problem solving, although students could not always
see the direct relevance of the tutorials to COBOL
knowledge. Lectures it was felt could not be discarded
altogether as they helped clarify the reading. The
gradual build-up of knowledge integrated with practice
was felt to be helpful. In summary, further development
of courses along these lines was considered worthwhile
to achieve the broader objectives of improved problem
solving ability, team work, and a more motivating

historical approach to teaching computer organization
and related machine language issues has been to train
students to be proficient with some particular
hardware. Indeed, many such courses attempt to prepare
students for careers involving particular types of
computers. Our philosophy is quite different for two
basic reasons. First, fewer individuals are required to
be proficient machine or assembly language programmers;
instead, ability to think abstractly and to employ more
powerful (more conceptual) tools is demanded. Second,
the rapidity with which new machine types are
introduced suggests that learning any specific machine
will necessarily miss the mark; instead, students must
become familiar with the generic machine, that is, the
conceptual machine common to almost all computer
hardware designs. (Even the so-called non-Von Neuman
machines are usually comprised of systems of sequential
machines.) We advocate that these undergraduate courses
be oriented to teaching from the framework of
abstraction and concept and that the machine vehicle
for the course be chosen to support this framework.",

abstract = "The design and implementation of graphics packages has
been widely studied and discussed. The special needs of
the teaching environment change the requirements of a
package in some interesting ways because the details
usually hidden from the user are of interest to the
students. Here the design of such a package is
considered. In order to identify the needs of the
package, the structures of CORE (which is used
throughout as an example of an applications-oriented
package) are compared with a list of topics covered in
an elementary graphics course. Some of the nonessential
flexibility of CORE can be thrown away, and procedures
needed to handle hierarchy and manipulation of the
structured display file can be added. A package (the
Northwestern University Simple Graphics Package)
resulting from this analysis is described. Specific
suggestions are made for pruning CORE to a manageable
size. A natural way of accessing the structured display
files and a system of symbols are included. The
resulting package is small, manageable and useful.
During the summer of 1983 I was given the opportunity
to teach the first computer graphics course to be
offered at the University of Chicago. The only
available software was PLOT-10 [11], in a version
designed to interface to FORTRAN on the DEC-20. The
only prerequisite for the course was an elementary
programming course which taught PASCAL, hence the
students could not be expected to program in FORTRAN.
Some experimentation with the versions of FORTRAN,
PASCAL, and PLOT-10 on the DEC-20 revealed that
interfacing the PLOT-10 routines to PASCAL wasn't going
to work. A second, more important, reason for rejecting
this option was the lack of segmentation capability in
PLOT-10. I was planning to use Principles of
Interactive Computer Graphics by Foley and Van Dam [3]
and I wanted the students to be able to program in the
spirit of the ACM CORE [4] inspired Simple Graphics
Package (SGP) used in the text. My solution was to
implement this SGP in PASCAL on the DEC-20, with
drivers for two of the terminal types available on
campus. During the quarter I taught the course I
realized that this was not an adequate solution. There
were some things I just couldn't demonstrate for the
students and some things that I couldn't put into the
programming assignments. For example, a fair amount of
time was spent discussing package implementation:
clipping algorithms, coordinate transformations, the
segment data (visibility, detectability), etc. It was
impossible, in the UC SGP, to look at this information
as an image was constructed and modified. It was
equally impossible for the students to manipulate these
constructs directly. I would have had similar problems
with a full implementation of CORE and with any other
package with which I am familiar. Basically, the
packages designed for graphics applications hide the
details of the implementation and present a high level
view to the user. This is great when implementing an
interactive graphics program but it is not so great
when trying to teach how the packages work. This should
not be taken as a blanket condemnation of the use of
packages for computer graphics classes, nor as a
suggestion that students should always be reduced to
programming at the display processor level. There are
good reasons for using packages, or at least
package-like systems, in an elementary graphics course.
Packages provide the user-friendly environment needed
to start the students in computer graphics, and to
allow the students to become familiar with graphics
software as it exists in the real world. The students
will learn the style and format of CORE, GKS [6, 12,
13, 14], PLOT-10, or whatever package is chosen. Last,
but perhaps most important to a busy instructor (and is
there any other kind?), using a package means writing a
minimum of new software. Learning from the experience
of writing and using the UC SGP, I modified the package
to include some extra capabilities. At this time the
package was also moved to a VAX 11/780 at Northwestern
University. The design described in this paper includes
slightly more than either of these packages.
(Throughout the discussion the first package is called
UC SGP and the second NU SGP.) The design and
implementation of a graphics teaching system depends on
the available tools. If there is already a
sophisticated package, a little bit of extra software
may suffice. I'm going to consider the situation in
which a new package will be written expressly for use
in teaching. Similar considerations are valid when
extending an extant package. There are certain
objectives to keep in mind. The package should be small
so that it runs efficiently and so that it can be
implemented with a reasonable effort. The features
which will make it a good learning tool should be
emphasized and those which further flexibility but not
insight can be de-emphasized. The system should be
designed to work with dumb terminals, if those are the
ones likely to be available in sufficient quantity for
student use. (If there are enough smart terminals the
package can do a little more and may be easier to
produce.) When designing a small system like this one,
it is a good idea to keep the available hardware in
mind, retaining sufficient flexibility to include other
hardware later. (In the real world the flexibility of
the package depends somewhat on the shortness of the
time available for the implementation.) I'd like to
start with the ACM CORE, a well documented and well
known system, and sculpt it to the needs of teaching
carving away some excess and adding some new
capabilities.",

abstract = "The purpose of this paper is to describe a project in
a course on Operating Systems. The project is designed
to reinforce the concepts of memory management, process
management and processor management that are discussed
in most Operating Systems texts. Each student is to
design and write a program that will simulate these
major components of an operating system. This project
is presented to the student in 3 phases and is written
in Pascal although it can be adapted to other
languages. The first phase requires the design of
memory management routines for an operating system
which schedules jobs through the use of a combined
round robin/FIFO philosophy. The major concerns are the
allocation and deallocation of memory pages as programs
are submitted to the system and are removed from the
system as they finish. The second phase takes into
account various scheduling techniques, I/O requests,
and swapping. Having already worked out the bugs in the
memory management routines, the student now must be
concerned with the management of the jobs that pass
through the system. The third and last phase is the
implementation of job synchronization. Several events
are described, any of which may be the object of a WAIT
or SIGNAL directive issued by an executing program. The
project must synchronize jobs that issue a WAIT and
SIGNAL directive on the same event. The project is part
of a 3 credit course in Operating Systems taught to
Juniors and Seniors. Successful completion of the
project includes not only the correct implementation of
a well documented and logically designed operating
system, but also a comparative study, within each
phase, of the efficiency and effectiveness of the
operating system as a variety of parameters, which
describe the environment, are changed. Observations are
submitted in a report that is required with each
phase.",

for the integration of computer programming into the

solutions to science and mathematics problems develop a
procedural understanding of the fundamental theories of
these disciplines. Students should be taught to use
programming languages for these solutions for the same
reasons they are taught the universal tools of
arithmetic and algebra, and because only a computer
provides the means to describe solutions in explicit,
correct, and executable form. Programming should be
integrated into all mathematics and science teaching
from the earliest years. In precollege education,
programming should be taught over a period of eight to
ten years, rather than as a 6-12 week separate topic,
and should be matched to the level of complexity of the
science and mathematics content.",

also do a good job upgrading the background of high

One workshop, PASCAL with Applications to Data
Structures, was specifically designed to prepare
current high school teachers to teach a PASCAL course
whose goal is to prepare students for the advanced
placement test. Each of the six workshops is a three
semester hour course and most carry graduate credit.
Three of the six courses have already been offered and
more should be taught next summer. The reception of the

Science program, require all computer science seniors

interactive graphics to provide an experimental
environment that rivals breadboarding as a ``hands-on''
logic-design experience. The simulator described here
allows interactive keyboard entries during the
simulation interval providing activation of network
switches and pulsers, restarting or slowing the
simulation, graphical expansion of modules in terms of
their internal components, graphical pan and zoom for
better resolution of sub-networks, and multiple viewing
windows onto the virtual space of the network. The
simulation is three-level and event driven, and allows
the specification of periodic clock signals of
unlimited duration. A pre-processor allows the macro
definition of modules and provides the necessary
independence of local variables that is required for
multiple instantiation. Although inherently recursive,
the macro processor can be supplemented with library
macros that support iterative specification. This
feature allows the construction of networks with
interated cell structures.",

help you do just that, enabling you to prepare and
present your ideas in less time and with better
results. Use this information as a checklist before,
during, and after your course. During the course, you
will probably want to obtain some feedback on your
performance. You may want to either conduct a trial run
with an audience of your colleagues or have someone sit
in on your first few class meetings and check your
performance. You could also read over the list before
each class (always a good idea) and check your own
performance right after each class.",

language find a course on introductory COBOL rather
unmotivating. Furthermore, experience has shown that
COBOL is not an ideal language as the first procedural
language in CIS programs. It is our conviction that
COBOL should be taught in CIS programs as a file
processing language, using a data structures approach,
as suggested by the ACM's IS2 component. In this paper,
we propose a course description and topics sequence,
and describe an implementation experiment based on the
proposal. Following a brief survey of the elementary
features of the language, the proposed course has aimed
to teach advanced COBOL features, data and file
structures, and fundamental concepts of software
engineering in an integrated fashion. The experiment
has been highly successful, and the course has been
incorporated in our CIS curriculum at Miami University,

abstract = "One of the challenges of teaching MIS is preparing
students to apply the knowledge they have gained in a
real project. Although they have developed proficiency
in problem-solving, structured design techniques, and
programming during course work, many MIS students have
never interviewed a user or been asked to make design
changes at a user's request. In addition, many students
have never had to work on a project team, manage
schedules, and meet project deadlines. The senior
information systems design project course provides
students with an opportunity to apply systems concepts
and techniques in the design of an information system.
Students identify ``live'' projects and work on project
teams. In the past, many of these projects have been
programming design and implementation projects provided
by local industry. However, in large-scale projects,
students could not start with problem definition,
proceed to requirements specification, and complete
detailed design, because all of this could not be
accomplished in a single term. As a result, they would
do segments of larger projects. With the advent of the
microcomputer, however, many smaller scale projects
became available in offices seeking to automate records
management, routine accounting, and other office
automation systems. These projects created an
opportunity for students to do an entire project, from
systems analysis to detailed design. The purpose of
this paper is to describe the objectives and procedures
of the information systems design project seminar and
to discuss the nature and scope of design projects
conducted in university offices during the fall, 1985
quarter. The paper will describe the respective roles
of student systems analysts and users, the systems
development practices followed, and some of the
successes and pitfalls of the experience.",

a research project for those advanced students within a
traditional course for the remaining enrollees.
Although the specific course dealt with in this
instance is data communications, it is believed that
the model proposed is transportable to other advanced
courses in computer science which have students with

abstract = "The importance of the role of documentation in the
development and maintenance of software is not in
dispute among computer professionals. Within the
profession, software has come to mean more than just
the source or object code which is produced. A modern
definition of software includes documents as a vital
component. The largest part of such documentation is
external to the program and records the history of the
project. Included could be project plans, requirements
specification, preliminary detailed code design,
user-directed manuals and maintenance journals. All too
often the computer science curriculum, whether by
design or default, limits student experience with
external documentation to specialized courses such as
software engineering. While the documentation
experience provided by these courses may prove
valuable, its quality may be limited by the student's
attitude. If the student's previous experience has been
limited to internal documentation, there is a good
chance that he has come to view documentation as an
add-on, something to be completed after the project is
really finished. It is difficult to alter this
mind-set. Identification of a solution to this problem
may require not only a reevaluation of the
documentation requirements for student software
projects but an examination of the availability of
programming languages and design tools which support
the documentation effort. This paper reports the
development of several design tools which are intended
for student use in the preparation of preliminary
project documentation. Special among these is an
interactive graphics editor to be used to assist in the
design, documentation and implementation of programs.",

also relies heavily upon the student's previous
coursework. It should mimic project work as performed
outside the academic sphere in that it yields a useable
result. Through the use of techniques such as a
contract for project grade, outlining attainable goals
agreed upon by both the student and the instructor, the
student gains an understanding of the project in

jobs will require computer literacy and skills, and as
a result more courses will be offered by secondary
schools to prepare their students. As this area of
computer technology expands, the job market will
require individuals that have been trained with various

issues in applied artificial intelligence through a
short, intensive, course --- starting from ground

reasonably priced personal computers with medium

increase the generation of CAI materials in all fields.
Ironically, there has been little CAI material
developed to aid in the instruction of Computer
Science. Furthermore, earlier efforts at courseware
development for computer science was centered on
programming languages not more advanced topics. In
recent years, however, several researchers have been
developing personal computer based courseware
simulations of more advanced topics: program execution
[2,6,21,16], computer architecture [15,17], and data
structures algorithms. This work is part of a growing
body of research being performed in the emerging area
of Visual Programming [11,10]. In this paper we will
first briefly review the area of graphic simulations of

First, the procedures structure the evaluation by
partitioning the project grading into small components.
Second the procedures incorporate the use of grading
sheets for the group documentation at each project
milestone. Third, the procedures provide for an
interaction between the performance of the group and
the performance of individual students in determining
each individual's project grade. These procedures
provide periodic feedback, allow students to clearly
see how the project evaluation will be done, and
encourage some objectivity and consistency in the

is our belief that since the problem involves the

used in the design and implementation of operating

that using the basic concepts of concurrency and their

abstract = "Beginning students tend to think that computer science
means only programming. As teachers of computer
science, we are constantly trying to emphasize that the
important component of computer science is a problem
solving ability. This is not easy for several reasons.
First of all, it is difficult to ``teach'' problem
solving, whether in the context of computer science or
not. Secondly, beginning computer students spend the
vast majority of their time struggling to get this
program working just before the deadline so that they
can then start on the next program. A third reason that
students might miss the problem solving focus is that
we don't give them enough opportunities to solve
problems from start to finish. All too often these
programming assignments are presented to the students
in a ``ready-to-program'' format. That is, the real
work is glossed over or is accomplished for them. In
this paper we discuss a simple but important
application, committee scheduling. This problem is an
excellent example of the entire problem solving process
and provides students at all levels with the
opportunity to formulate a mathematical model, prove a
theorem, consider alternate strategies for implementing
a solution as a computer algorithm, and perform some
elementary algorithm analysis.",

Yet, academic programs still teach programming as a
fundamental part of computer literacy. This paper
proposes that the programming portion of the class be
eliminated and replaced with a study of spreadsheets
and databases. The paper discusses the manner in which
spreadsheet and database design can be approached to
maximize learning. An important concept that is learned
in any programming class is algorithm development.
Students learn how to analyze the problem and to set up
the step-by-step solution. This process must be done
before any coding can begin. Spreadsheets offer the
same type of learning and are much more appropriate for
non-computer science majors. Students must formulate
the problem, determine the equations and formulas
necessary to solve it, and then set up the worksheet.
Spreadsheet applications are found in every discipline
and their design requires a minimal amount of computer
knowledge and mathematics. Learning to set up a
database and design the queries necessary to obtain
information from the database is a concept important to
computer literacy. Once again, students learn to
``program'' by learning to construct their questions in
a manner that is meaningful to the software package.",

inappropriate environments, inadequate educational

given that computer science is not only an appropriate,
but a central and important discipline for liberal arts
colleges. This has been argued elsewhere and will not
be addressed here, as my primary concern is with the
institutions which have (at least officially) accepted
this premise. I will first attempt to describe the
major symptoms and then the causes of some of the

management environment is flexible enough to establish
these requisite management organizations. What if,
though, a computer system was being developed in an
environment where there was no ready agreement as to
the approach towards the development, where current
information systems decisions were made by a high level
committee and where that committee could not agree on
basic information systems concepts. Further, what if
there was no one individual or authority in management
who had the stature to provide the necessary leadership
to get the process going properly. This paper outlines
such a situation, how systems are being designed and

experiment with the course using a variation of the
``contract'' suggested by Bailes and Sayer, as written
by the three students involved, follows. One semester,
three graduating seniors found themselves with class
schedule conflicts that prevented their taking a
particular required course. When it became obvious that
they could not schedule the conflicting class, the
chair of their department assigned to them a senior
project. The guidelines for the project were adapted
from ones outlined in the SIGCSE Bulletin Vol. 18 No.
4, December 1986. The students could do whatever they
wanted for a project so lon g as the department chair

requiring written requirements specifications for all

course. The term ``requirements specifications'' is
used here to refer to a description of the functional
interaction of a single computer program with its
environment and the non-functional constraints placed
on that interaction. The principle thrust of the
arguments is that students are best served if they are
introduced to program design only as an activity which
naturally follows requirements specification. This
concept must be reinforced in all classroom examples
and by practical student exercises. By requiring the
students to create requirements specifications, the
instructor encourages them to view the software
development effort, from the beginning, as the analysis
and solution of a problem rather than as the generation
of a computer program. They are similarly encouraged to
realize that the valuable end product of the effort is
not just a program, but a thorough description of the
problem and solution. Guidelines for incorporating the
concept into existing CS1 courses are given. They are
reinforced by a description of how this has been done
in a specific course.",

abstract = "Until recently, introductory programming classes in
the Department of Computer Science, University of
Minnesota, Duluth, concentrated on writing code. Not
until the junior or senior year were students required
to adhere to basic principles of software engineering.
As might be expected, by their junior year students'
bad habits, like coding while designing or inserting
comments last, were firmly entrenched and difficult, if
not impossible, to undo. The solution, it seemed to us,
was to prevent bad habits right from the start.
Consequently, we developed guidelines for designing and
documenting the entire programming effort, from problem
statement to post mortem. The guidelines include such
steps as: algorithm development in high-level
pseudocode with stepwise refinements, structure
diagrams with data flow, detailed test descriptions,
testing results, and a description of all known bugs.
For a given assignment, the instructor chooses the
steps to be completed, allowing for flexibility and
appropriateness in the design and documentation.
Results have been extremely positive. Students start
earlier and produce better organized solutions. More
students solve the problems correctly. Most
importantly, students develop design and documentation
skills in the freshman year that carry through and are
improved over their four-year stay. Because of this
initial success, our department has adopted these
guidelines uniformly in all programming classes. In
this paper we will describe our guidelines and give
some details of their use. We will discuss the
philosophy that led us to develop these guidelines and
present our observations of their effectiveness.",

abstract = "It is ACM's 40th year and an old debate continues. Is
computer science a science? An engineering discipline?
Or merely a technology, an inventor and purveyor of
computing commodities? What is the intellectual
substance of the discipline? Is it lasting, or will it
fade within a generation? Do core curricula in computer
science and engineering accurately reflect the field?
How can theory and lab work be integrated in a
computing curriculum? We project an image of a
technology-oriented discipline whose fundamentals are
in mathematics and engineering --- for example, we
represent algorithms as the most basic objects of
concern and programming and hardware design as the
primary activities. The view that ``computer science
equals programming'' is especially strong in our
curricula: the introductory course is programming, the
technology is in our core courses, and the science is
in our electives. This view blocks progress in
reorganizing the curriculum and turns away the best
students, who want a greater challenge. It denies a
coherent approach to making experimental and
theoretical computer science integral and harmonious
parts of a curriculum. Those in the discipline know
that computer science encompasses far more than
programming. The emphasis on programming arises from
our long-standing belief that programming languages are
excellent vehicles for gaining access to the rest of
the field --- but this belief limits out ability to
speak about the discipline in terms that reveal its
full breadth and richness. The field has matured enough
that it is now possible to describe its intellectual
substance in a new and compelling way. In the spring of
1986, ACM President Adele Goldberg and ACM Education
Board Chairman Robert Aiken appointed this task force
with the enthusiastic cooperation of the IEEE Computer
Society. At the same time, the Computer Society formed
a task force on computing laboratories with the
enthusiastic cooperation of the ACM. The charter of the
task force has three components: Present a description
of computer science that emphasizes fundamental
questions and significant accomplishments. Propose a
new teaching paradigm for computer science that
conforms to traditional scientific standards and
harmoniously integrates theory and experimentation.
Give at least one detailed example of a three-semester
introductory course sequence in computer science based
on the curriculum model and the disciplinary
description. We immediately extended our task to
encompass computer science and computer engineering,
for we came to the conclusion that in the core material
there is no fundamental difference between the two
fields. We use the phrase ``discipline of computing''
to embrace all of computer science and engineering. The
rest of this paper is a summary of the recommendation.
The description of the discipline is presented in a
series of passes, starting from a short definition and
culminating with a matrix as shown in the figure. The
short definition: Computer science and engineering is
the systematic study of algorithmic processes that
describe and transform information: their theory,
analysis, design, efficiency, implementation, and
application. The fundamental question underlying all of
computing is, ``What can be (efficiently) automated?''
The detailed description of the field fills in each of
the 27 cells in the matrix with significant issues and
accomplishments. (That description occupies about 16
pages of the report.) For the curriculum model, we
recommend that the introductory course consist of
regular lectures and a closely coordinated weekly
laboratory. The lectures emphasize fundamentals; the
laboratories emphasize technology and know-how. The
pattern of closely coordinated lectures and labs can be
repeated where appropriate in other courses. The
recommended model is traditional in the physical
sciences and in engineering: lectures emphasize
enduring principles and concepts while laboratories
emphasize the transient material and skills relating to
the current technology.",

representing knowledge, using paradigms to manipulate
the knowledge, and having a learning process modify
both the knowledge and the paradigms. One could
consider this process as building a model of how one
thinks, i.e., how the brain operates at the cognitive
psychology level [2]. Recently, cognitive scientists
have developed a model of how one thinks at the neural
level. This model is called the Parallel Distributed
Processing (PDP) model of cognition and is described in
the definitive work of Rumelhart and McClelland [1].
The idea that we can actually model the brain as an
electrical network of neurons and then develop
Artificial Intelligence in terms of the model is
extremely attractive. The program has had some success,
especially in the area of sensory perception and motor
activity, but still has some problems to overcome
before it can be said to be the ideal foundation for
Artificial Intelligence. Much of the power of the PDP
model derives from the learning algorithms. In this
paper we consider a classification of learning
algorithms that helps to organize the many developing
techniques seen in the literature. We also discuss how
the PDP model is changing the way we teach Artificial
Intelligence. This is an important aspect of the PDP
model, since the model has produced a number of new
problem-solving techniques for Artificial Intelligence
as well as holding out the promise of a better
foundation for the basic theory of this field. If the
PDP model fulfills its promise we would develop
Artificial Intelligence programs that are really
intelligent rather than programs that only appear to be
intelligent.",

abstract = "How does a programmer decide which of two different
algorithms to use to solve a problem? This is a
particularly difficult question because one finds that
often one part of the solution of a problem
``dominates'' the running time of the solution, i.e.,
uses a large fraction of the execution time. Further,
this special part of the solution requires the
programmer to choose an algorithm for its solution from
a large number of alternatives. This tutorial describes
one approach used in computer science to measure the
complexity of a program by modeling programs with
mathematical functions that describe their execution

abstract = "Theory of computation courses have traditionally been
taught at the advanced-undergraduate/graduate level,
primarily due to the level of mathematical rigor
associated with the topics involved. The topics covered
include automata theory, formal languages,
computability, uncomputability, and computational
complexity. If the essentials of these topics are
introduced earlier in the undergraduate computer
science curriculum, students gain deeper insights and
better comprehend the underlying computational issues
associated with the material covered in subsequent
computer science courses. Such a course is required of
all computer science majors at the University of North
Florida. Experience has demonstrated that a minimum
background for the course includes Freshman-Sophomore
mathematics (presently calculus) and a typical
introduction to computer science. Thus the course is
best positioned within the curriculum at the Junior
level. Recognizing that Junior level students are
rarely mathematically sophisticated, the treatment is
not as rigorous as that of a more advanced course on
the theory of computation. To reinforce the ``theory''
covered in class, an integral portion of the course is
devoted to ``hands-on'' exercises using simulation
tools designed for construction of a variety of
automata. The exercises generally require the
construction of automata of various forms, with
observation of their step by step operation. Further
exercises illustrate the connections between various
automata and areas such as hardware design and compiler
construction. The paper describes the course and the
nature of the simulation tools used in the ``hands-on''
component of the course.",

Normally, 25\% of a faculty member's time should be
available for scholarly activity and development.
Teaching loads should not exceed 12 hours and should
not exceed 4 courses with 2 preparations. Curriculum:
Curricular assume a 120 semester hour, four year,
baccalaureate program. The program should consist of
approximately 30\% computer information systems, 20\%
business, at least 40\% in general education and up to
10\% other. Forty to 60 percent of the CIS portion
should cover a broad core that includes (a) computer
concepts and software systems, (b) program, data, and
file structures, (c) data management, (d) data and
computer communications, and (e) systems analysis and
design. Students should be exposed to a variety of
programming languages and be proficient in one
structured language. The remaining courses should cover
breadth and depth. Resources: Appropriate computing
facilities must exist for students and faculty.
Adequate software and documentation must be available.
Students: Established standards and procedures must
insure that graduates have the requisite qualifications
to function as CIS professionals. Institutional
Support: Adequate support must be provided to support
the faculty, department office administration, and
library. Faculty support includes leave programs,
reasonable teaching loads, competitive salaries, and
travel support.",

undergone a revolution. It has started the move from a
mysterious art form to a detailed science. The vehicle
for this progress has been the rising popularity of the
field of Software Engineering. This innovative area of
computer science has brought about a number of changes
in the way we think of, and work with, the development
of software. Due to this renovation, a field that
started with little or no design techniques and
unstructured, unreliable software has progressed to a
point where a plethora of techniques exist to improve
the quality of a program design as well as that of the
resultant software. The popularity of structured design
and coding techniques prove that there is widespread
belief that the overall product produced using these
ideas is somehow better, and statistics seem to
indicate that this belief is true. Until recently,
however, there existed no technique for quantitatively
showing one program better than its functional
equivalent. In the past few years, the use of software
quality metrics seems to indicate that such a
comparison is not only possible, but is also valid. The
advent of Software Engineering has demanded that most
universities offer a Software Engineering course which
entails a ``Real-World'' group project. Students
participating in the class design a system using a
program design language (PDL). Other students then
write code from the design and finally the design team
integrates the modules into a working system. For a

assigned one of three forms of the exercise containing
four array-manipulation problems. The control group
worked all four problems without the aid of dynamic

solutions by observing graphical execution of attempted
code, and the second experimental group was allowed to
interactively manipulate the elements of the array by
means of arrow keys in order to devise a solution, in
addition to observing the graphical execution of their
code. Six measures of improvement in performance on
Problem 4 over Problem 2 were made for each subject.
The one-tailed Wilcoxon two-sample test was applied,
using significance level .05, to compare mean scores
between groups. The second experimental group showed
significantly more improvement than the control group
as measured by four of the six scores, and the first
experimental group showed significantly more
improvement than the control group as measured by two
of the six scores. Although the second experimental
group scored slightly higher than the first on all but
one measure, no significant difference was observable
between the two experimental groups. On a follow-up
quiz, each experimental group scored slightly, but not
significantly, higher than the control group.
Additionally, it was noted that only students who had

have become easier to use they also have become more
difficult to program. Students who want to write
programs that look and feel like real Macintosh
applications, for example, are constrained by the time
available and the sheer complexity of the application
development process. We have found that several
object-oriented programming systems have succeeded in
abstracting out the commonalties of graphical user
interfaces and can allow students to construct
interactive, graphical applications at a lower cost. In
this paper we describe our experiences in the use of
MacApp, an application framework for the Apple
Macintosh. The design and implementation of Prof, a
prototype visual programming system for both educators
and students developed by a final year student in a
thirteen week project course, is used to illustrate the
discussion. We describe the advantages and
disadvantages of the object-oriented application
framework approach in the expectation that our
experiences will be useful for other educators who may
be contemplating following this path.",

However, flowcharts are intuitive, simple, and easy to

general flowcharts to structured ones is usually made
by postulating the standard structured flowchart
patterns without much justification. The present method
establishes the correspondence between flowcharts and
structured programs via sets of computations. The
student examines a set of computations of a flowchart
program and describes the general structure with a
regular expression. A structured program that
corresponds to this regular expression is constructed.
In this way, the student is led to (1) see the
difference between program and computation, (2) see how
``structure'' arises, (3) see that a structured program
is one whose textual structure is identical to the
structural description of its computations, (4)
appreciate the cognitive simplicity of structure
descriptions versus flowcharts.",

very simple virtual machine is introduced. Beginning

software engineering, data structures, algorithm
design, etc. are introduced in a top down fashion with
details being developed with the aid of the virtual
machine. When a high level language is introduced,
students progress more rapidly and with a greater
understanding of what is taking place in the machine.

interactive programming has become essential in data

teach full screen interactive programs on IBM
mainframes at universities because of the enormous cost
of CICS and the lack of flexibility with the MUSIC
PANEL utility. This article describes our solution to
the need described in [4] for an inexpensive utility
which will allow COBOL programmers to do interactive
programming on mainframes utilizing full screen
techniques. At Southeast Missouri State University, we
have addressed these problems with a utility program
which facilitate full screen interactive programming.
This program has been developed by Dr. Hilton C. Chen
with comments and suggestions by Dr. Wayne C. Summers.
The utility program is friendlier and easier to use and
considerably more useful than MUSIC's PANEL. More
importantly, it gives our students experience in full
screen interactive programming on mainframes.",

abstract = "The purpose of many computer science courses is to
enhance the programming skills of the student,
including the ability to design and implement
appropriate algorithms. In such courses, examinations
should therefore contain problems which test for
algorithmic skills. In particular, there should be
problems which require the student to write small
sections of code, usually in the form of a subprogram.
Students often perceive these questions as
``programming'' problems; however, it is more accurate
to state that these are algorithmic problems, since
such questions primarily measure algorithmic skills. In
addition, since such exam problems address topics which
are a part of the course content (e.g., stacks, queues,
and tables in a data structures class), the student's
knowledge of these topics is also tested and
reinforced. This paper discusses how examination
questions which test algorithmic skills have been
implemented in a data structures course at Northeast
Louisiana University. Arguments both for and against
using such test questions are discussed, as well as the
proper format and amount of this type of problem. The
results of a survey of data structures students at
Northeast concerning this topic is also presented.
There has been relatively little discussion on the
topic of computer science examinations in the
literature. It is hoped that the publication and
presentation of this paper will stimulate dialogue in
this area among academicians.",

assumption that scholars already have prepared
courseware for many subjects. Also specific methods and

attractive for staff members because it assures not
only better teaching standards, but also leaves them
more time for research. Finally, it is worthwhile to
mention that powerful software systems are offered to
support administrative functions of the university, but
the needs of an individual instructor remain somehow
forgotten. The system is implemented on IBM PC and

are introducing such a component this coming academic

include a study of abstract machines such as finite

demonstrates that a neat and useful way of presenting
these automata is to use a logic programming language
such as Prolog, making the approach useful from a
teaching point of view. Not only does a Prolog
specification provide a precise definition of an
automaton's behaviour, but it also gives an
immediately-executable simulator. The reversible
execution property of Prolog programs can make these
simulators inherently more powerful than traditional
simulators. The paper includes Prolog specifications
for finite state machines, Turing machines, linear
bounded automata, and pushdown automata.",

development of programs at the conventional machine
language programming level. The user interface is
similar to that of MS-DOS's DEBUG program. In addition
to providing the basis for projects in Computer

learning and teaching environment for computer systems
concepts defined in ACM IS Curriculum '81 IS1. The
central tool is a computer simulator based on a
pedagogical model of computer system resources which
allows students to study principles without becoming
too involved in the implementation idiosyncrasies
usually associated with machine level programming.
Programs may be written directly in machine language or
in a Pascal-like language, TP, which includes features
that allow complete access to and control of host level
resources. The TP compiler supports separate
compilation, IPL load module generation, and detailed
translation output used for machine language
modification and debugging. The simulator supports
interactive execution, tracing, modification, and
debugging.",

abstract = "The downward migration of computer science courses
from university to secondary and even junior high
school level is accelerated by the increasing computer
usage in schools and the increasing demands of both
parents and students for quality computer education.
Teacher training is a major vehicle to the success of
this migration. However, at this time, there is no
consensus concerning how the secondary school computer
science teacher should be certified and what should be
included in the study of a computer science teacher
certification program. This paper collects data from
various computer expert groups through the use of
Delphi technique to provide valuable guidelines for
establishing a computer science teacher certification
program as well as a model curriculum based on the
minimum competency required of a successful secondary
school computer science teacher.",

abstract = "It has been nine years since Anthony Ralston and Mary
Shaw called for a rethinking of the importance of sound
mathematical training for undergraduate computer
science majors [14]. In their paper they stressed the
need to develop a two-year sequence in discrete
mathematics for beginning computer science majors.
Since that time numerous articles about such a sequence
have appeared in both mathematics and computer science
journals [4], [9], [12] and [13] and a number of panel
sessions at professional meetings of SIGSCE and of the
Mathematical Association of America (MAA) have been
held. After all this time questions about the place of
discrete mathematics in the undergraduate curriculum
are still being debated. One question that is no longer
being asked is: should discrete mathematics be part of
a computer science major's undergraduate program? The
questions that are being asked now and for which there
are no easy answers are: at what level should discrete
mathematics be taught? should there be one course, two
courses or even three courses? what should the
prerequisites be for these courses? and what topics
should be presented in these courses? Computer
scientists and mathematicians who have read the
literature, listened to the debates, examined the
textbooks or taught a course in discrete mathematics or
discrete structures know that there appears to be
little agreement as to how and what works and when it
works best. This paper attempts to analyze the current
situation in more detail and to offer a few suggestions
to keep the dialogue alive.",

fact that random number generators in use today are not
truly random is no secret (The New York Times, C1-C8).
Since most simulations produce reasonable results it
might be difficult to convince students that there are
any problems involved in trusting these random number
generators. A simple simulation which can be used as a
programming exercise in any language can dramatically
reveal these dangers. The exercise used requires a
statistical evaluation of $ \pi $ which yields horrible
results. The results are not difficult to explain and
the exercise can be extended by allowing students to
experiment with modifications to the pseudo-random
number generator used in attempts to ``fix'' the
problem. This can be useful, as the attempts to fix the
pseudorandom number generator usually aggravate rather
than alleviate the problem.",

abstract = "The principle of abstraction has assumed a central
role in modern software engineering. Most modern
textbooks on data structures and algorithms propound
the advantages of abstraction as a programming tool.
Aho, Hopcroft, and Ullman cite generalization and
encapsulation as the two primary advantages of both
data and procedural abstraction. Allen Tucker echoes
these advantages, defining abstraction as ``a conscious
process of generalizing a type, procedure, or data
structure in such a way that it can serve more purposes
than the one for which it was originally designed,''
and encouraging the packaging of procedures in
libraries ``to promote their wide utility through
generalization.''Michael Feldman focuses on the use of
abstraction to reduce complexity through information
hiding. Encapsulating the details of a representation
allows us to ``concentrate on the mathematical
properties of these entities, their visible structure,
and the set of operations that can be performed on
them.''Robert Kruse shows how distinguishing between a
general concept and a particular implementation can
clarify code, which often allows us to recognize
similarities between situations which were presumed to
be different. He also clearly outlines the various
levels at which we solve problems: the abstract
(conceptual), data structures (algorithmic),
implementation and application (programming) levels.
Unfortunately, many students have trouble grasping the
concept of abstraction. They see Kruse's hierarchical
approach to problem solving as a complication rather
than a tool, and have difficulty distinguishing one
level from another. (Perhaps this problem is unique to
the students I have encountered \ldots{} but I doubt
it.) Part of the problem in teaching abstraction is
that Pascal, C, and most of the other languages which
are widely used in data structures courses do not
enforce the use of abstraction. Writing a high-level
procedure which uses a lower-level one to do its work
seems to be merely a stylistic issue (``The prof wants
us to write it this way.'') The power of hierarchical
structure for controlling complexity is easily
overlooked when it just seems to make one's program
longer. Modula-2 is one of the more recent languages
which support data abstraction by separating the
definition of an abstract data type (ADT) from its
implementation in separately compiled modules. We have
used Modula-2 in our data structures and algorithms
class for the past two years, and are converting our
introductory programming courses (CS1 and CS2) to
Modula-2 beginning this fall. We are convinced that the
use of Modula-2 helps students understand data
abstraction by experiencing it in a concrete way. In
essence, the hierarchical view of a problem is not
merely encouraged, but can be enforced by the modular
nature of the language.",

my work as a Computer Science teacher with a load of
106 students in 4 different meeting sections and 3
different courses. This data, together with my
experience of twelve years on the Computer Science
faculty at SUNY-Geneseo suggest that teaching is no
easy life. Indeed, it is necessary to work nights,
weekends, and holidays to do an adequate job. Under
such teaching loads, there is no time for family
without taking time away from preparation, grading, and
individual student teaching. The same is true of
committee work, research, publishing, and other
important professional activity. It is suggested that
such heavy teaching loads reduce the quality and
quantity of educational services to students; a
situation that is exacerbated when extra-classroom
duties are required.",

abstract = "The need for software engineers has grown with the
increased use of software and computers in our society.
Presently, formal education of software engineers is
being conducted at the graduate degree level. There are
pressure to extend this education to other academic
levels; in fact, many baccalaureate degree programs
today include one or more software engineering courses.
Difficulties confronting software engineering education
at the associate-degree level include: limited
educational and experience backgrounds of the students;
faculty whose own education did not include software
engineering; and severe time and content constraints
imposed on such two-year programs. The author concludes
that the two-year associate-degree-level
vocational/technical computer science program should
continue to focus on producing graduates with sound
programming and problem-solving skills with which to
gain entry level employment, and upon which those
graduates can build, with further experience and
education, toward a software engineering career,
Software engineering education in the two-year
vocational/technical program, then, should be
restricted to that which directly enhances the
development of these basic skills; specific
recommendations are offered for consideration.",

implementation of laboratories associated with our
undergraduate computer science courses. The beginning
assembly language course was chosen as our first
experiment with this concept for several reasons.
Acquisition of new equipment necessitated
reorganization of the course in any case, and the
philosophy of learning by experimentation was most
easily implemented in a subject ``close to the
hardware''.The concept of a supervised lab in computer
science, based on those used in the physical and
natural sciences, is relatively new. Teaching assembly
language in an assigned, supervised laboratory setting
has overwhelming advantages over the more traditional
lecture and open lab method. In addition to the obvious
guaranteed computer time, the immediate availability of
help allows much more material to be covered. Student
and faculty acceptance of the labs has been uniformly
enthusiastic. So much so, that all of our
programming-intensive courses are now scheduled with
labs. This paper presents descriptions of the original
lab facility itself, later improvements to the
facility, the course organization, and examination
procedures. It concludes with some general observations
and suggestions based on our experience.",
