Coupled with the difficulty of conveying abstract concepts in general to students, is the complexity of the object oriented paradigm itself. A common approach to conveying complex abstract notions (such as algorithms or data structures) is the use of visualisations. This paper describes the and the design and implementation of the JOOPA2 tool for animation of the execution of simple object oriented (Java) programs in a 3D environment. The tool was developed for the purpose of supporting the teaching of object oriented concepts in an introductory level programming course. 1 |
