  abstract =     "This paper presents the empirical testing results on
                 students' learning in the CS1 PASCAL programming
                 course. This research is the continuation of a project
                 begun in 1990. In 1991, creation of a prototype Windows
                 based application for Personal Computers reached
                 completion. That system, called BACCII, is used to
                 teach beginning procedural programming. All but the
                 most basic operations are accomplished using icons.
                 When the algorithm is complete, the student can
                 generate syntactically correct source code for PASCAL,
                 C, FORTRAN, or BASIC. The system was evaluated with 126
                 college students in the Spring 1993 semester, randomly
                 assigned to laboratory sections. Fifty-two used BACCII
                 and VAX with the remaining 74 using VAX PASCAL alone.
                 The results showed significant improvement in academic
                 scores (and presumably learning) for the BACCII control
                 group.",
