Education and Problem Solving
-
I am a teacher at a school in South Africa giving Computer Studies. I've only recently started and to my shock learned that my learners (they have been coding for a year) can not do basic problem solving! I am looking for a few good programming problems that does not contain difficult code. I've done the classic faculty and fibonacci. The sillabus is terrible and the previous teacher did not do extra. They cannot do arrays or anything like that. I want to first establish a few basic things before we go on to those type of problems... Thanks...

Hi, instead of posting non-sense easy source code in X programming language, I prefer to redirecting you to some specialized projects in computer learning http://www.pedagogicalpatterns.org/ http://www.squeakland.com/ Don't let the rare user interface of that site and Squeak in general scare you about the seriousness about the project. Smalltalk is involved in computer learning since its beginnings (1972-1976) and still does today (is not a fashioned environment like most today). eidan
