Sažetak
Programming courses are very important and challenging part of future computer experts’ education process. Abstract nature of these courses however makes them rather difficult for most programming novices and these courses have rather high reported failure rates. Throughout the years the search for methods that would improve programming novices’ understanding of abstract programming concepts has been conducted but it gave no generally accepted solution and the fact remains that problems of programming novices are reoccurring in every new generation. The reasons of this kind of state in programming education are analyzed and discussed in this paper. The results of conducted research about the most common problems of programming novices are also presented along with the proposed steps for improving the success rate of programming courses.
