Abstract

In this paper we present the programming environments Karel and objectKarel that support the procedural and Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) paradigms. Karel and objectKarel share the same GUI and functionalities, and thus they constitute a multi-paradigm environment. The design of the environment was based on the extended research carried out the last decades regarding the teaching of programming to novices and is the main focus of the paper. The potential uses of the environments for teaching programming concepts and techniques to various audiences and different learning contexts, as well as experiences of using them so far, are also presented.
