Description : BlueJ is an integrated Java environment specifically design$

The BlueJ environment was developed as part of a university research
project about teaching object-orientation to beginners. The system is
being developed and maintained by a joint research group at Deakin
University, Melbourne, Australia, and the University of Kent in
Canterbury, UK. The project is supported by Sun Microsystems.

The aim of BlueJ is to provide an easy-to-use teaching environment for
the Java language that facilitates the teaching of Java to first year
students. Special emphasis has been placed on visualisation and
interaction techniques to create a highly interactive environment that
encourages experimentation and exploration.

BlueJ is based on the Blue system. Blue is an integrated teaching
environment and language, developed at the University of Sydney and
Monash University, Australia. BlueJ provides a Blue-like environment for
the Java language.
