A Process for Novice Programming Using Goals and Plans
Hu, M., Winikoff, M. and Cranefield, S.
We propose to improve the teaching of programming to novices by using a clearly-defined and detailed process
that makes use of goals and plans, and a visual programming language. We present a simple notation for designing programs in terms of data flow networks of goals and plans, and define a detailed process that uses
this notation, and that ultimately results in a program in a visual programming language (BYOB). Results from an evaluation are presented that show the effectiveness of this approach.
