Automatic Analysis of Programming Assignments
نویسندگان
چکیده
In a virtual university, advanced support for all aspects of handling assignments is needed. Homework assignments are particularly in need of help because communication between teachers and learners as well as between learners is not as easy as in presence universities. In this paper, we present an overview of the AT(x) approach (analyze-and-test) for automatically analyzing and testing programs. We describe how AT(x) is used for giving feedback to students working on programming exercises. The AT(x) framework is instantiated to AT(P) and AT(S) aiming at programs written in Prolog and Scheme, respectively.
