摘要
In this work, we studied how programming novices explore and search on online discussion forums. We collected novices' intentions and search logs. The results indicated that novices had significant different behavior patterns compare to experienced learners, and they indeed require specific assistant in generating search queries, and filtering helpful information among the search result. This work also suggests directions to assist future learners in seeking programming information in online environment.
