Supporting Learning from Examples in a Programming Course

This project is focusing on tools for interactive example explorations and investigates the value of these tools to support example-based programming and learning from examples in programming-related classes. The tool that we are developing use a digital library of explained programming examples prepared by teachers in a special "dissection" format. Students work with authored examples using a Web-based interface that help them find relevant examples, explore each example interactively, and navigate from example to example.
