Improving Grading Outcomes in Software Engineering Projects Through Automated Contributions Summaries

2023 IEEE/ACM 45TH INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON SOFTWARE ENGINEERING-SOFTWARE ENGINEERING EDUCATION AND TRAINING, ICSE-SEET, pp. 259–270.

By: K. Presler-Marshall*, S. Heckman n  & K. Stolee n

author keywords: grading consistency; program analysis; software engineering teams
TL;DR: Improvements to grading practises in the context of a CS1.5 introductory software engineering course, where assessing individual students’ contributions to weekly lab assignments is done manually by teaching assistants (TAs), is studied. (via Semantic Scholar)

Check It Off: Exploring the Impact of a Checklist Intervention on the Quality of Student-authored Unit Tests

PROCEEDINGS OF THE 27TH ACM CONFERENCE ON INNOVATION AND TECHNOLOGY IN COMPUTER SCIENCE EDUCATION, ITICSE 2022, VOL 1, pp. 276–282.

By: G. Bai n, K. Presler-Marshall n, T. Price n  & K. Stolee n

author keywords: unit testing; testing education; checklist
TL;DR: A lightweight testing checklist that contains both tutorial information and testing strategies to guide students in what and how to test is presented, suggesting that the testing tool support does not need to be sophisticated to be effective. (via Semantic Scholar)

2022 article

Identifying Struggling Teams in Software Engineering Courses ThroughWeekly Surveys

PROCEEDINGS OF THE 53RD ACM TECHNICAL SYMPOSIUM ON COMPUTER SCIENCE EDUCATION (SIGCSE 2022), VOL 1, pp. 126–132.

By: K. Presler-Marshall n, S. Heckman n  & K. Stolee n

author keywords: software engineering education; team projects; peer evaluations; surveys; course interventions
TL;DR: A weekly reflection survey is proposed to help the course teaching staff proactively identify teams that may not be on track to learn the course outcomes and may provide instructors with an actionable early-warning about struggling teams. (via Semantic Scholar)

SQLRepair: Identifying and Repairing Mistakes in Student-Authored SQL Queries

2021 IEEE/ACM 43RD INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON SOFTWARE ENGINEERING: JOINT TRACK ON SOFTWARE ENGINEERING EDUCATION AND TRAINING (ICSE-JSEET 2021), pp. 199–210.

By: K. Presler-Marshall n, S. Heckman n  & K. Stolee n

TL;DR: The results show that students find repairs produced by the tool comparable in understandability to queries written by themselves or by other students, suggesting that SQL repair tools may be useful in an educational context. (via Semantic Scholar)
