* Read "Teaching data representation using real-world applications" and used it as inspiration to create the concept map on data representation. It was a nice touch that the paper used bit flippers (“Flippy Do", from Code.org) to teach binary encoding of decimal and fractional numbers, and the [[https://www.nytimes.com/2021/02/24/science/nasa-mars-parachute-code.html | Mars 2020 Lander parachute]] to teach encoding of textual data. | * Read "Teaching data representation using real-world applications" and used it as inspiration to create the concept map on data representation.

| * While reading the previous paper, I stumbled on some papers about propositional logic: "InfoTraffic: teaching important concepts of computer science and math through real-world examples" (10.1145/1227504.1227349). It provides a nice online application to learn about propositional logic, using road traffic control as metaphor: https://logictraffic.ch/. |
| * Read "An online tool for easy-to-set-up, visualizer-based, and auto-gradable full tracing exercises". It is well suited to program understanding and debugging competences, as required in the Programming Fundamentals exam I applied to my students last Monday. The tool. TracingQuiz, builds upon PythonTutor's visualizer, requiring the student to answer a quiz for each line under execution. It should be available at https://tracingquiz.xyz/, but I couldn't access it (access denied). |
