Material for the Applied Apprenticeship approach will be linked here soon


Related material has been published in papers. AAA and CS 1: The Applied Apprenticeship Approach to CS 1 that appeared in the 1995 SIGCSE conference. This paper is also available as Duke technical report 1994-29, available via ftp

In a paper presented at the OOPSLA 94 educator's symposium Claire Bono and I wrote about apprenticeship learning also. That paper is available in postscript form

I'm writing a C++ book as well, the material in the book is presented using an apprentice approach. For information about the book, see my book page
