Research paradigms and the nature of meaning and truth
Clear, Tony (ACM, 2001)Computer science educators commonly have a strong background in mathematics, the physical sciences, and the use of quantitative methods. This very education process, the perspective of computer science as a scientific ... -
Resources for instructors of capstone courses in computing
Clear, Tony; Young, F.; Goldweber, M.; Leidig, P.; Scott, K. (ACM, 2001)Most computing programs now have some form of integrative or capstone course in which students undertake a significant project under supervision. There are many different models for such courses and conducting these courses ... -
Salient Elements in Novice Solutions to Code Writing Problems
Whalley, JL; Clear, Tony; Robbins, P; Thompson, E (Australian Computer Society, 2011)This paper presents an approach to the evaluation of novice programmers' solutions to code writing problems. The first step was the development a framework comprised of the salient elements, or programming constructs, used ... -
Sampling the error: research into underrepresented groups in computing
Clear, Tony (ICER 2011, 2011)There has been considerable handwringing over time about the unbalanced proportions of women and ‘minority’ students in computing courses. Unfortunately CS Education researchers do not find themselves in a strong position ... -
SoDIS SEPIA - collaborative partnerships in software engineering research
Clear, Tony; McHaney, R.; Gotterbarn, D. (NACCQ, 2004)The Centre for Information Technology Research (CITRUS) launched in 2002 had the goal of encouraging collaborative research that is industry and community linked, at regional and national levels within the NACCQ sector. ... -
Software engineering and the academy - uncomfortable bedfellows
Clear, Tony (ACM, 2004)With software engineering (S. E.) now beginning to emerge as a distinct discipline, through initiatives such as the SWEBOK [1], the growth of undergraduate programmes in the U.S. [2] and collaborative efforts to offer ... -
TEAC research funding proposals considered harmful: ICT research at risk
Clear, Tony (NACCQ, 2003)As Information Technology (IT) educators, whether career academics or former practitioners, it seems exceedingly rare to find environments in which IT is understood, appropriately managed or nurtured. To expect enlightened ... -
The fate of computing in research performance evaluation schemes – ERA vs PBRF
Clear, AL; Clear, Tony (CITRENZ, 2011)The prevailing ‘audit culture’ in national governments has seen a global proliferation of research performance evaluation schemes. Most recently the Excellence in Research for Australia (ERA) results have been published. ... -
The New Zealand qualifications framework - a case of the emperor has no clothes?
Clear, Tony (ASTE, 2006)No abstract. -
The waterfall is dead - long live the waterfall!!
Clear, Tony (ACM, 2003)I find myself now in the throes of rewriting the guide I provide to our students undertaking their capstone software development projects. Like many such artifacts it has evolved over time and is an amalgam of my own and ... -

Topics and treatments in global software engineering research - a systematic snapshot
Raza, B; MacDonell, SG; Clear, Tony (Science and Technology Publications (SCITEPRESS), 2013)This study presents an analysis of the most recent literature addressing global software engineering (GSE). The primary purpose is to understand what issues are being addressed and how research is being carried out in GSE ... -
Using Groupware for international collaborative learning
Clear, Tony; Daniels, M. (IEEE, 2000)The paper reports the lessons learned from a two year collaborative learning trial between students at Auckland University of Technology (AUT) and Uppsala University. The trials took place using a combination of email and ... -
Using IT for active student feedback in the learning environment
Clear, Tony (NACCQ, 2000)This paper describes the use of a web-based groupware product (specifically a Lotus NotesTM & DominoTM discussion database), as a means of gaining direct and regular feedback from students on the progress of a course. Some ... -
Valuing computer science education research?
Clear, Tony (ACM, 2006)This paper critically enquires into the value systems which rule the activities of teaching and research. This critique is intended to demonstrate the application of critical enquiry in Computer Science Education Research ...
