  abstract =     "Blackboard tracing of algorithms, while an effective
                 tool for the teaching of sequential programming, is
                 singularly ineffective and confusing when applied to
                 parallel computing. The use of classroom games to
                 illustrate concepts and pathologies proves to be a
                 useful alternative technique. Games in which students
                 play the role of processors can be used to illustrate
                 simple parallel algorithms as well as more complex
                 concepts. Live demonstrations are stimulating for both
                 the participants and the class as a whole. This paper
                 discusses guidelines regarding the development of such
                 exercises and presents several examples.",
