Supporting Differentiated Instruction in Programming Courses through Permanent Progress Monitoring

摘要: Several studies showed that teacher's support is essential to the students learning process. Often it difficult for teachers follow all their student's evolution and make timely interventions when needed. Often, in same class, there are with substantially different performance levels, many times a teacher intervention cructial help lower performing students. To identify these students, we propose use of CodeInsights, tool able capture autonomously unobtrusively real-time information about students' based on snapshots code. The available can be used by adoption necessary measures address each student needs or difficulties more grounded manner. We present system some results field test involving from an introductory course PHP programming.
