A programming learning system for beginners - A completion strategy approach

The purpose of this research is to develop a programming learning system for beginners using the completion strategy. The completion strategy uses well-designed programs to let students engage in completing, modifying, and extending their programs, The completion strategy is a paradigm of learning by examples with learning enforcement. In this paper, learning theories of the completion strategy are investigated, A template technique is employed to realize the strategy, An educational experiment was made to show the learning impact of the proposed system, The experimental result shows that the completion strategy is benefit to the programming learning for beginners.
