===== Abstract =====
This thesis provides a broad overview of concepts, teaching methods, and the current state of research in object-oriented programming. A graphical illustration is introduced to visualize definitions of concepts in literature. Furthermore, a teaching approach that dispenses almost entirely of instruction by teachers is developed. In this context, knowledge and abilities of novice programmers are investigated. Additionally, item response theory is applied to program code.
