School of Computing academic publishes Greenfoot programming book
Introduction to Programming with Greenfoot: written by Professor Michael Kölling
A programming textbook teaching object-oriented programming in Java with Greenfoot has been published by Pearson Education this week.
The book, titled "Introduction to Programming with Greenfoot : Object- Oriented Programming in Java with Games and Simulations" and written by Michael Kölling, is the next piece in the puzzle of the Greenfoot programming system.
The Greenfoot software, a development environment designed to teach programming to children at secondary school age, has been available since 2006, and has been in use by dozens of schools and universities. More teaching material for use with this environment was the most requested additional resource. This book fills this gap with a large set of projects, exercises and explanations that teach young readers to program through the development of scientific simulations and simple computer games.
