Abstract

Students' learning difficulties in object-oriented technology are examined from the perspective of Constructivist Learning Theory. It is shown that more abstract types of learning are required by the student for object-oriented technology than for structured technology. An introductory subject in object-oriented modelling of user applications is described which uses object diagrams and concept maps to assist students to learn to perform abstractions.
