Abstract

The importance of the historical and human aspects of the didactics of informatics is discussed. The threefold human aspects of teaching: by, for and about people is explored. Using the example of the notion of the procedure, the potential of the historical discussion is investigated. A strengthening of the historical and human view is required both in university research and in the curricula of the informatics education at both secondary and university levels.
