Tutorial Description
Modelling enjoys a central position in object-oriented software development.
Unfortunately, techniques for modelling, and the industry standard Unified Modelling
Language (UML) in particular, have been criticized as being too complex in teaching
situations. The tutorial will present a mixture of techniques for overcoming this
complexity in teaching and learning UML modelling based on the use of the Ideogramic
UML tool (http://www.ideogramic.com/products/) for gesture-based, collaborative
modelling.
Overview
The tutorial will discuss common problems with introducing object-oriented modelling.
The presented teaching techniques and examples will make use of
Ideogramic UML
: a
tool for collaborative and individual UML modelling. Its most effective use is on an
electronic whiteboards (Figure 1, left), and it is operated using gestures drawn with a pen

or a mouse (Figure 1, right). Drawing a box, e.g., creates a class and drawing a line
between two classes creates an association between those classes.

Throughout the tutorial, we will discuss attack problems of
extent, complexity,
and
usability
of modelling notations by focussing on four types of teaching scenarios:
1.
Lecture use.
A lecturer explains modelling using Ideogramic UML. As on an
ordinary whiteboard there is a close connection between the lecturer’s actions and
the results of these actions.
2.
Peer instruction use.
Teaching assistants and students use Ideogramic UML to
present and develop solutions interactively.
3.
Peer group use.
Students use Ideogramic UML when working in project groups,
solving an exercise collaboratively.
4.
Individual use.
Ideogramic UML is used on an ordinary PC as a modelling tool
combined with all the scenarios above.
At the end of the tutorial, participants should have insight into collaborative teaching
techniques for modelling, have ideas for exercises and assignments, and know how
Ideogramic UML can be used concretely to teach modelling.
Part of the tutorial will be hands-on experience with gesture-based modelling. The
equipment needed for the set-up is relatively inexpensive: a projector, a desktop
computer, and an electronic whiteboard. The electronic whiteboard consists of a device
that can be attached to an ordinary whiteboard and it is available from a number of
manufacturers such as tool-tribe (www.tool-tribe.com), Mimio (www.mimio.com), and
eBeam (www.e-beam.com) with prices starting at 500 US$. All participants are provided
with free educational licenses for Ideogramic UML.
Equipment Needed
We will bring a projector, electronic whiteboard equipment, and laptop computers. The
electronic whiteboard equipment needs to be attached to an ordinary whiteboard (at least
2 meters x 1,5 meters in size) and the projector needs to be able to be placed so that it can
project onto the whiteboard.
