Session 1626 Pattern-based Programming Instruction* J. Philip East, S. Rebecca Thomas, Eugene Wallingford, Walter Beck, Janet Drake University of Northern Iowa/Marist College Several years ago a group of our computer science faculty began seriously examining initialprogramming instruction. We discovered a shared perception that too many students don't write reason-able programs even after completing a semester course in programming. Others have noted the same mayeven be true after the second course (e.g., [1]). There is cause for concern as computer applicationspervade our society, often in life-critical situations. Our students are producing some of

In typical protocol analyses the researchers commence with a pre-existingcoding scheme and modify it based on the task and events in the current protocol. In this projectwe will use a principled coding scheme based on the FBS ontology developed by Gero andcolleagues (Gero, 1990; Gero & Kannengiesser, 2004). The FBS ontology contains three types ofvariables: Function (F), Behavior (B) and Structure (S). Function (F) represents the designintentions or purposes of the design; behavior (B) represents the object’s attributes that can beeither directly derived from a representation of the object (Bs) or expected to be derived
