Abstract

This paper presents the first experiences of the use of an online open-source repository with programming exercises. The repository is independent of any specific teaching approach. Students can search for and select an exercise that trains the programming concepts that they want to train and that only uses the programming concepts they already know. Then, they can submit their solutions and get automatic feedback from the system. We analyzed quantitatively how students used the system by inspecting the logged actions of the students using the system. We also did a qualitative analysis by interviews, to find out how the students appreciated the use of the repository and to get feedback for improvements. We focused on how students select exercises as finding the exercise that fulfills the training needs of a student is the innovative part of our repository.

分析和评估用于培训 Java 编程的可搜索习题库

本文介绍了使用在线开放源代码库进行编程练习的初步经验。该资源库独立于任何特定的教学方法。学生可以搜索并选择一个练习，训练他们想要训练的编程概念，并且只使用他们已经掌握的编程概念。然后，他们可以提交自己的解决方案，并获得系统的自动反馈。我们通过检查学生使用系统的操作记录，对学生如何使用系统进行了定量分析。我们还通过访谈进行了定性分析，以了解学生对资源库使用的评价，并获得改进反馈。我们重点关注学生如何选择练习，因为找到满足学生培训需求的练习是我们资源库的创新部分。

期刊介绍： INFORMATICS IN EDUCATION publishes original articles about theoretical, experimental and methodological studies in the fields of informatics (computer science) education and educational applications of information technology, ranging from primary to tertiary education. Multidisciplinary research studies that enhance our understanding of how theoretical and technological innovations translate into educational practice are most welcome. We are particularly interested in work at boundaries, both the boundaries of informatics and of education. The topics covered by INFORMATICS IN EDUCATION will range across diverse aspects of informatics (computer science) education research including: empirical studies, including composing different approaches to teach various subjects, studying availability of various concepts at a given age, measuring knowledge transfer and skills developed, addressing gender issues, etc. statistical research on big data related to informatics (computer science) activities including e.g. research on assessment, online teaching, competitions, etc. educational engineering focusing mainly on developing high quality original teaching sequences of different informatics (computer science) topics that offer new, successful ways for knowledge transfer and development of computational thinking machine learning of student''s behavior including the use of information technology to observe students in the learning process and discovering clusters of their working design and evaluation of educational tools that apply information technology in novel ways.
