Abstract: We define algorithmic essays as short reports with code and explanatory text that explore at least two approaches to solving a computational problem. Our aim is for students to practise skills like clear communication and evaluating alternative solutions, by writing essays to be shared with others. This poster presents our approach to an environment and resources that ease the writing and sharing of essays, with minimal setup requirements.
