Análise de ferramentas para apoio ao treinamento de linguagem de programação java

Abstract

This work discusses tools used for Java programming language training. The mapping performed by Henrique and Rebouças (2015) was used to identify the applications studied in this work, where filtrations were performed according to the focus of each software, the simplicity of use for didactic purposes and also the availability of access. From this filtering, four tools were selected: BlueJ, Greenfoot, Alice3 and Jeliot. Subsequently, each tool analyzed considering: interface characteristics, the main features of the tool and the available feedback method. It was also observed the coverage of these tools in support of java programming language training and object orientation. For this, example programs were tested in each environment studied. Finally, we investigated, through bibliographical research, experience reports that demonstrate the use of these environments in the classroom context.
