Abstract

This paper presents an overview of the design principles and the evaluation of a new programming environment, WIPE (Web Integrated Programming Environment), designed specifically to teach novices the fundamentals of programming. The environment is designed for use in secondary education as a first programming course, in order to help students become familiar with the main programming concepts.
