Design and implementation of a tool for teaching programming

Abstract

In this thesis, a survey on computer applications for teaching programming and some graphical programming tools together with their underlying environments has been carried out and a graphical Pascal teaching tool is designed and implemented. Graphical programming tools provide the user the ability to solve the problems through the use of icons and symbols allowing very little text. Here, a Pascal teaching tool is presented in a very user friendly environment to teach programming through the use of flowcharts in a visual manner.
