  abstract =     "Programming jobs are increasingly scarce and yet an
                 increasing number of students are taking IT and
                 computing courses containing programming. It may
                 therefore be that many will never need to write
                 programs themselves. Instead the knowledge and skills
                 may be primarily of indirect use in other IT areas. If
                 being able to program is not the ultimate objective of
                 students taking such modules, then the aims and
                 objectives of curriculum developers may need to be
                 changed accordingly. In this paper, we investigate the
                 motivations that University students have for taking
                 programming modules, and look at how those motivations
                 change over time.",
