Programming approach for CS1/2

A programming approach that helps students to understand a problem and develop a structured program.

In order to guide/structure the student mental process, this approach incorporates a set of rules/principles related to problem presentation, and a natural and intuitive way to identify, model and implement the problem components.

This approach has been used in courses which use imperative languages (Java and C languages).

Graphical environment for supporting this approach [ongoing work].
