[colevandersWands]

• Title of the paper: On Use of Theory in Computing Education Research
• Author's name: Greg Nelson
• Link: greglnelson.info
• Why are you submitting this paper?: Greg explains from the inside why CER doesn't always succeed at making better CS education, and lays out some clear paths forward.
• Can you present this paper?: Greg would be best. If Greg isn't possible it would be cool to hear everyone's experience trying to translate theory into practice (I could open if no one else wants to).
