Abstract :
We have developed a system that allows teachers to monitor the classroom learning of students (novice programmers) in real time and provide support to groups of students experiencing common problems. This system has a program animation function which keeps a historical record of the students´ operations as they go through a program while trying to understand it. By analyzing this record, the system pinpoints common problem areas, and the causes of difficulty, for the teacher
