  abstract =     "This paper identifies and describes a number of
                 misconceptions observed in students learning about
                 object technology. It identifies simple, concrete,
                 measures course designers and teachers can take to
                 avoid these misconceptions arising. The context for
                 this work centres on an introductory undergraduate
                 course and a postgraduate course. Both these courses
                 are taught by distance education. These courses both
                 use Smalltalk as an introduction to object technology.
                 More particularly, the undergraduate course uses
                 Smalltalk as a first programming language. Distance
                 education can limit the amount and speed of individual
                 feedback that can be given in the early stages of
                 learning. For this reason, particular attention has
                 been paid to characterizing measures for avoiding
                 elementary misconceptions seen in beginning learners.
                 At the same time we also address some misconceptions
                 observed in postgraduate students. The pedagogical
                 issues discussed are of particular importance when
                 devising an extended series of examples for teaching or
                 assessment, or when designing a visual microworld to be
                 used for teaching purposes.",
