Two-Language, Two-Paradigm Introductory Computing Curriculum Model and its Implementation

Zanev, Vladimir, Radenski, Atanas (2011)

Serdica Journal of Computing

Similarity:

This paper analyzes difficulties with the introduction of object-oriented concepts in introductory computing education and then proposes a two-language, two-paradigm curriculum model that alleviates such difficulties. Our two-language, two-paradigm curriculum model begins with teaching imperative programming using Python programming language, continues with teaching object-oriented computing using Java, and concludes with teaching object-oriented data structures with Java.

VisibleZ: A Mainframe Architecture Emulator for Computing Education

Woolbright, David, Zanev, Vladimir, Rogers, Neal (2014)

Serdica Journal of Computing

Similarity:

This paper describes a PC-based mainframe computer emulator called VisibleZ and its use in teaching mainframe Computer Organization and Assembly Programming classes. VisibleZ models IBM’s z/Architecture and allows direct interpretation of mainframe assembly language object code in a graphical user interface environment that was developed in Java. The VisibleZ emulator acts as an interactive visualization tool to simulate enterprise computer architecture. The provided architectural...
