Abstract
In this paper, we describe the development of an instructional tool called JavaHelper for teaching the basics of Java programming. The tool can help beginner students understand the inner workings of programming by animating the data flow, control flow, and dynamic execution of a program. JavaHelper can be used as an instructional aide in introductory programming courses. We describe the development and use of the system, and also discuss its role in improving learning outcomes for beginner programmers.
