---|---|---|
Eye-movement modeling examples (EMME) have previously been shown to impact attention of learners in various domains. Potentials of such training methods, however, have remained unexplored in computer programming education. In the current study, participants attended to a classroom experiment in which their comprehension strategies were cued by an educational intervention based on theories of program comprehension (Block Model) and accompanied by a visualization of eye-movement strategies of an advanced programmer. EMME-based interventions affected gaze following slightly, and resulted in improved problem-solving. We present results related to the gaze-behavior during the intervention and demonstrate how participants overlapped their attention with the expert. The findings inform about the design of eye-movement modeling examples in computing education. |
