Abstract
Modelling is an important activity in software development and it is essential that students learn the relevant skills. Modelling relies on dedicated tools and these can be complex to install, configure, and use—distracting students from learning key modelling concepts and creating accidental complexity for teachers. To address these challenges, we believe that modelling tools specifically aimed at use in teaching are required. Based on discussions at a working session organised at MODELS 2023 and the results from an internationally shared questionnaire, we report on requirements for such modelling tools for teaching. We also present examples of existing modelling tools for teaching and how they address some of the requirements identified.
期刊介绍：
We invite authors to submit papers that discuss and analyze research challenges and experiences pertaining to software and system modeling languages, techniques, tools, practices and other facets. The following are some of the topic areas that are of special interest, but the journal publishes on a wide range of software and systems modeling concerns:
Domain-specific models and modeling standards;
Model-based testing techniques;
Model-based simulation techniques;
Formal syntax and semantics of modeling languages such as the UML;
Rigorous model-based analysis;
Model composition, refinement and transformation;
Software Language Engineering;
Modeling Languages in Science and Engineering;
Language Adaptation and Composition;
Metamodeling techniques;
Measuring quality of models and languages;
Ontological approaches to model engineering;
Generating test and code artifacts from models;
Model synthesis;
Methodology;
Model development tool environments;
Modeling Cyberphysical Systems;
Data intensive modeling;
Derivation of explicit models from data;
Case studies and experience reports with significant modeling lessons learned;
Comparative analyses of modeling languages and techniques;
Scientific assessment of modeling practices
