One important part of computer science education deals with learning programming. So, object orientation should be in focus. But what is object orientation? Several different definitions are presented, and a definition of object orientation by its fundamental concepts is introduced. Furthermore, several educational “paradigms” are discussed. Additionally, a choice of object-oriented programming languages is presented. After all that theoretical background, some exemplary implementations of object orientation in national (German) and international curricula are shown. All in all, the article provides a broad overview of the topic of object-oriented programming in computer science education. 2018-01-01T00:00:00Z http://dl.gi.de/handle/20.500.12116/36601 Erratum to: Design and implementation of a platform for the citizen science project migraine radar Wogenstein, Florian; Gaul, Charly; Kropp, Peter; Scheidt, Jörg; Siebenhaar, Yannic; Drescher, Johannes Article Erratum to: Design and implementation of a platform for the citizen science project migraine radar was published on April 1, 2018 in the journal it - Information Technology (volume 60, issue 2). 2018-01-01T00:00:00Z http://dl.gi.de/handle/20.500.12116/36593 Frontmatter Frontmatter Article Frontmatter was published on April 1, 2018 in the journal it - Information Technology (volume 60, issue 2). 2018-01-01T00:00:00Z http://dl.gi.de/handle/20.500.12116/36599 Computing in the classroom: Tales from the chalkface Sentance, Sue; Waite, Jane Computing, a broad discipline including computer science, information technology and digital literacy, was introduced as a mandatory national curriculum subject in England in 2014. This meant the introduction of both computer programing and more academic computer science into the curriculum. Such a significant curriculum change involves a period of transition, lasting several years. Here we consider what we have learned about the implementation of the new curriculum, the external influences that have come to bear on teachers’ and pupils’ experiences, and the challenges that are faced. 2018-01-01T00:00:00Z
