Research Description
CS Education
Research in CS edcuation is certainly a broad category, but there are numerous areas here that I am interested in. What's the best language to introduce students to programming and how do we even measure this? How do we effectively team students together so that they succeed? How can we teach teamwork skills in engineering disciplines? How do we measure the efficacy of distance education techniques? I'm interested in any and all of these topics.
