Teaching how to teach computational thinking
ITiCSE 2018: Proceedings of the 23rd Annual ACM Conference on Innovation and Technology in Computer Science Education

Computational Thinking is argued to be an essential skill for the workforce of the 21st century. As a skill, Computational Thinking should be taught in all schools, employing computational ideas integrated into other disciplines. Up until now, questions ...
Object-oriented programming in Smalltalk and ADA

Though Ada and Modula-2 are not object-oriented languages, an object-oriented viewpoint is crucial for effective use of their module facilities. It is therefore instructive to compare the capabilities of a modular language such as Ada with an archetypal ...
Concurrent object-oriented programming in Classic-Ada

Although Ada supports concurrency and can thus be used as a concurrent programming language, it is not generally considered to be an object-oriented programming language. Classic-Ada is a preprocessor which adds the concepts of classes, inheritance, and ...
