Tool support for collaborative teaching and learning of object-oriented modeling

Published:24 June 2002Publication History

ABSTRACT

Modeling is central to doing and learning object-oriented development. We present a new tool, Ideogramic UML, for gesture-based collaborative modeling with the Unified Modeling Language (UML), which can be used to collaboratively teach and learn modeling. Furthermore, we discuss how we have effectively used Ideogramic UML to teach object-oriented modeling and the UML to groups of students using the UML for project assignments.
