  • Abstract
    This paper argues that issues concerning the creating side of computer science education are generally not well supported in existing courseware authoring systems. Writing courseware often involves writing a presentation to be used by students, but in the process of creating such a presentation the original insights, concerning design decisions is lost. The authors argue that in order to deal with the variations in the giving and receiving ends of knowledge transfer, as well as the transfer itself a full-fledged development environment is needed.
