For ProgramLive we teamed up with
David Gries and Paul Gries to create a comprehensive learning
resource on CD-ROM. Based on MediaDX,
ProgramLive combines animation, graphics and hypertext and synchronizes
these media with narration. The design of ProgramLive reflects modern
research into how people learn and specifically how people learn
programming.
ProgramLive includes hands-on instruction in Java and
Object-Oriented Programming, tutorials on the major IDEs, and access to
many sample Java programs.
Self-Paced Learning
The course includes more than 300 activities, more than
500 minutes of high-quality audio, resulting in almost 70 hours
instruction. Users control the pace of instruction and decide when to
skip a topic or slow down and work more carefully.
Each activity in ProgramLive presents a single concept or method, taking
full advantage of the multimedia capacity of computers. |
