  abstract =     "Commercially available compilers, particularly those
                 used for languages like ANSI C that have extensive
                 commercial applicability, are not well-suited to
                 students in introductory computer science courses
                 because they assume a level of sophistication that
                 beginning students do not possess. To alleviate this
                 problem at Stanford, we have developed the Thetis
                 programming environment designed specifically for
                 student use. The system consists of a C interpreter and
                 associated user interface that provides students with
                 simple and easily understood editing, debugging, and
                 visualization capabilities. Reactions of students and
                 instructors indicate that Thetis fulfills the goals we
                 set out to accomplish and provides a significantly
                 better learning environment for students in CS1/CS2.",
