Teaching Error Correction to Core IT Students via Video Supplementary Instruction MAJ John Syers Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science United States Military Academy, West Point, NY 10996AbstractThe introduction to programming can be very difficult for students, particularly those who haveno IT background. Understanding and correcting syntax errors is an integral part ofprogramming, yet this topic is often given only perfunctory mention in course curriculums.The goal of this study is to determine whether providing supplementary instruction to students isan effective means of teaching error correction. It also
students with online and telephone technicalsupport, and student services support within the classes. Near the end of each course we conduct a formalanonymous student course evaluation. The evaluation results are a primary input into the course updateplanning process, as we begin the next update in the quality cycle of continual course improvement.To summarize, our framework of online education involves three parameters that we seriously invest in a)instructional technology, b) teaching techniques, and c) policy and procedures. Modern, effective, anduser friendly communication and collaboration tools are essential to a successful online class.Models for Online TeachingTraditional Class Room involves “Same Time, Same Place” interactions.

becomes evident that this difference is driven by women who have astrong preference for written feedback. This difference is not driven by men, as men have nostatistical difference for written feedback over oral feedback, however, there is no opposition tothe written feedback by men. The reason for this strong preference and why it is only exhibitedin women is unknown. In speculation, there is a veil of anonymity associated with writtencomments that is not present in the giving of oral questions and comments. Knowing that womenare particularly in a position of alienation when giving comments in an oral Q&A STEM(science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) classroom setting,12 this anonymity couldmitigate the stereotype threat associated
