The pedagogic value of Live Coding: Case Study – Civil Engineering
Live coding—where instructors write and execute code in real time while verbalising their thinking—has become an increasingly prominent teaching strategy in STEM disciplines, particularly computer science. It is typically framed as an active learning method that exposes students to authentic problem-solving, debugging, and iterative development practices. This paper reviews the effectiveness of live coding in […]
