Adaptation and Personalization in Computer Science Education: APCSE '20

Abstract

A wide range of tools and applications have been developed for supporting Computer Science Education, ranging from visual programming languages to web applications. In this setting it is crucial to model user needs and provide personalized support to improve the effectiveness and satisfaction of learning experiences. This summary gives a brief overview of the workshop Adaptation and Personalization in Computer Science Education organized at UMAP 2020 in order to bring together researchers, practitioners and education stakeholders interested in these topics. The workshop program consists of a keynote speech by Wolfgang Slany head of the Catrobat Project and by three technical sessions offering different perspectives on the main themes of the workshop.
