“…His experiences suggest that both can be successful and that students can grasp the patterns concept. Seffah (2003) and Sharp, Manns and Eckstein (2003) take this a step further by suggesting the use of pedagogical patterns to design courses, as well as teaching interaction design and process patterns. Cline (1996) advocates these ways of using patterns, but also suggests that patterns can be used pro-actively to suggest design structures.…”

This paper presents a critical review of patterns and pattern languages in human-computer interaction (HCI). In recent years, patterns and pattern languages have received considerable attention in HCI for their potential as a means for developing and communicating information and knowledge to support good design. This review examines the background to patterns and pattern languages in HCI, and seeks to locate pattern languages in relation to other approaches to interaction design. The review explores four key issues: what is a pattern? what is a pattern language? how are patterns and pattern languages used? and how are values reflected in the pattern-based approach to design? Following on from the review, a future research agenda is proposed for patterns and pattern languages in HCI.

“…Meszaros and Doble (1998) present a pattern language for pattern writing, suggesting a degree of stabilization around certain formats. Sharp, Manns and Eckstein (2003) report on the way that the format of patterns to support computer science education had to be modified to better suit the needs of their target audience.…”

“…The patterns differed in their levels of abstraction, and reflected the writers' teaching experience and their formal education. Actually, some of them were proto-patterns [16] and some were abstracted too much. Next, we briefly present the submitted patterns:…”

“…Specifically, a pedagogical pattern describes an abstract teaching approach from which contextualized teaching strategies can be generated, so that novice teachers are not forced to start over when they design new courses and learning resources. Communities like the Pedagogical Patterns Project [16] have been collecting many types of patterns that can help teachers teach and students learn.…”

“…Patterns intend to transfer expertise knowledge and therefore serve as means for peer-communication [10,16] Accordingly, patterns have standard compact forms that have evolved over time [16] so that they can be easily communicated to those who need the knowledge [4]. For example, the definition of design patterns usually consists of the pattern's name, motivation for use (the problem which provides a context in which the pattern is applicable), solution, results and tradeoffs of applying it, sample code, examples of its use, and related patterns.…”

(An almost) pedagogical pattern for pattern-based problem-solving instruction

2004

Importing design patterns from software engineering to the computer science education (CSE) field was followed by defining patterns and pattern languages suitable for CS courses. The main goal of incorporating patterns in CSE was to enhance students' programming abilities, as well as their design and problem-solving skills. Accordingly, various instructional materials were suggested for using patterns in classroom learning activities, such as collections of patterns and related programming assignments. However, the existing pattern-based materials seem to be insufficient for implementation in the classroom, especially when teaching introductory courses that emphasize syntax and programming language features. Therefore, alternative methods using applicative models for pattern-based instruction, which emphasize problem solving and program design issues rather than specific language features and syntax, should be developed and assimilated within the CS teaching community. We believe that successful implementation of such models should be accompanied by appropriate teachertraining.In this paper we describe an initial effort to expose CS teachers to the notions of pedagogical patterns and pattern-based instruction, aimed at motivating them to meaningfully adopt and adapt patterns to their concrete pedagogical needs.
