摘要：This paper describes the creation of nearly wordless techniques to aid in software instruction. The techniques depict procedural information visually and conceptual information verbally. The techniques are designed to promote critical thinking and higher order learning while teaching software skills. The authors provide background information about the techniques, their relation to learning theory, and the course in which they are used. Principles from allied fields are adapted to develop a lexicon for software instruction. The paper develops the lexicon and describes the nearly wordless diagrams spawned from it. Implications and future areas of research are discussed.
