Abstract

Innovative learning methodologies and tools are needed to foster students´ interest in programming, improve the effectiveness of programming teaching, and retain the students in computing programs. We present a Collaborative Interactive Cyber learning Platform for Anywhere Anytime Java Programming Learning, an open-source cyber learning platform for Computer Science programming education, to support anywhere anytime personalized and collaborative programming learning. A preliminary evaluation of the proposed cyber learning platform and learning methods has been conducted and the students´ responses have been very positive.
