“This book helps us in addressing the needs in preparing computer science teachers. Its editors have done an excellent job of gathering some of the best in the field to tell us what they know about the challenges of students learning computer science and about approaches for teaching computer science. We have a great deal of work to do in order to understand computer science education at the same depth as science education. This book helps us progress toward that goal.”

From Foreword by Mark Guzdial, College of Computing, Georgia Institute of Technology

“The book is successful in its core goal: to elevate the level of understanding in the field of computer science pedagogy. Whether an instructor or a researcher approaches the book from an augmentative perspective, or as an introductory text for new concepts, the book serves both functions admirably.”
