AB  -            Visualizing Programming Concepts using Flash AnimationsProgramming courses are fundamental and important for computer science education. However,critical programming concepts like recursion and pointers are often difficult to grasp forbeginning students. To help students understand the essence of programming, we developed anumber of learning modules associated with the vital concepts. By using flash animations, wvisualized the program logic and memory variation to make the abstract concepts easier tocomprehend. In pilot testing, this approach proved to be effective in stimulating students’interests and enhancing their learning performance. A management system was alsoimplemented to organize the learning modules through which instructors can edit questions andassign training activities. Students can take trainings and interact with the animations to gainbetter understanding.These courseware and learning materials not only improved instructors’ teaching efficiency, butalso practiced students’ self-study ability. This paper presents the design and implementation ofthe animations and the management system. A summary of the programming topics and coursesimpacted are also discussed.
