Software for E-Assessment of Programming Exercises

چکیده
This paper discusses the use of computer-based assessment (CBA) tools for e-assessment of programming exercises. Because many elearning tools already exist but provide different features, it is useful to integrate such tools. In particular, a combination of a virtual learning environment and a CBA tool provides many advantages (and also some challenges) as discussed in the paper. The paper reports on an implementation of such a tool combination, which was tested in an introductory Java class. So far our results are promising.

Software for Formative Assessment of Programming Exercises
This paper discusses an architecture for combining learning network and assessment systems (LNAS) with computer-based assessment systems (CBA). The advantage of such a combination is to support reuse and sharing of e-learning materials, in particular for automated formative assessment of programming exercises which are very labour-intensive to create. An architecture for such a combined tool is...
متن کاملUsing Software Testing Techniques for Efficient Handling of Programming Exercises in an e-Learning Platform
e-Learning has become a major field of interest in recent years, and multiple approaches and solutions have been developed. A typical form of e-learning application comprises exercise submission and assessment systems that allow students to work on assignments whenever and where they want (i.e., dislocated, asynchronous work). In basic computer science courses, programming exercises are widely ...
متن کاملUsing Conceptual Structures in the Design of Computer-Based Assessment Software
This paper discusses the use of conceptual structures in the design of computer-based assessment (CBA) tools for e-assessment of programming exercises. In STEM (science, technology, engineering and maths) subjects, universities often observe high dropout and failure rates among the first year students. There are a number of research initiatives that investigate the use of interactive teaching m...
متن کاملAutomatic Assessment of JavaScript Exercises
In this paper, we present js-assess online playground for automatically assessed JavaScript programming exercises. We show how such automatic assessment systems can be implemented on top of JavaScript tools already used by the software industry. Furthermore, we demonstrate how automatically assessed assignments can be easily embedded to any web page without a server, as assessment runs inside t...
