ACM SIGCSE Bulletin, 2008•dl.acm.orgThis paper is a teacher-researcher's reflection upon the use of open-source Robocode as a
Java programming assignment. Following the educational perspectives of Parker Palmer
and Elliot Eisner, it is a qualitative inquiry into the learning experiences of the students as
well as the inner journey of a teacher. The design of the assignment may be validated by the
ITiCSE 2007 Working Group's matrix taxonomy.
