ABSTRACT
The environment chosen to teach Java can have a profound effect on students' abilities to learn the language. Panelists will report on their experiences using different Java Interactive Development Environments (IDEs) to teach Java and what they identify as the strengthens and weaknesses of each IDE. Each panelist will discuss the most important features of the IDEs and related teaching pedagogies to address "what works and what doesn't" when teaching Java.
