Hi, I'm looking for a learning tool that helps a student/novice user program (preferably in Java). I know of Jeliot (a visualization program) that attempts to helps student understand how execution occurs. JTest is a professional package that detects error and tends to describe why they occur and how to solve it... it really isn't designed for a novice user thought. JTest is a code analyzer and I suppose some of the analyzers tend to explain their results. Does anyone know of any other learning tools?


I’m doing a project on Code Analyzers that’s designed to explain Java and I have to have state something about background work; so I decided to take the view that I have a learning tool and do background on learning tools. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance!

the best learning tool is a teacher who knows what he's talking about and a good book.

All those fancy "tools" you're talking about only lead to your students learning those tools instead of programming.
