        "Jigsaw puzzle" programming environments manipulate programs
        primarily by drag-and-drop. Generally these environments are based on
        their own special-purpose languages, meaning students must move on to
        another language as their programs grow. Tiled Grace is a tile-based
        editor for Grace, an educational programming language with a
        conventional textual syntax. Using Tiled Grace, programmers can move
        seamlessly between visualising their programs as tiles or source code,
        editing their programs via tiles or text, and continue on to
        traditional textual environments, all within the same programming
        language.  We conducted a user experiment with Tiled Grace, and present
        the results of that experiment showing that users find dual views
        helpful.
