About the Speaker: Prof. Shriram is the Vice President for Programming Languages at Brown University in Providence, RI, USA. He’s not, but that’s what it says on his business card. At heart, he's a person of ill repute: a Schemer, Racketeer, and Pyreteer. He believes tropical fruits are superior to all other kinds. He is terrified of success, because he may be forced to buy a suit. He is known to interrogate his audiences to ensure they’re paying attention. So, be alert!
About the Talk: Programming education, seemingly obviously, focuses on the writing of programs. But when novices struggle with programming, much of their difficulty is not with the program per se. What else is there? What do we know about it? And how can we make their experience better? This talk summarizes computing education research that asks and answers these questions.
