"It presents the objectives and challenges involved in designing smart learning objects (SLOs) through CS education modeling feature model transformations. ... should be useful to anyone using robots in teaching CS. It will also help those who build educational software. Students will benefit from the exercises at the end of each chapter." (Soubhik Chakraborty, Computing Reviews, September, 2015)
