Learning Introductory Programming with Smart Learning Environment

摘要

Programming Tutoring System (ProTuS) is an adaptive learning system developed to support introductoryprogramming. ProTuS utilises a cross-platform architecture that aggregates and harmonises learner analyticscoming from different systems and quantifies learners’ performance through a set of indicators. ProTuS has beensuccessfully used within universities to support teaching and learning. Programming tutoring systemProTuS [L1] was dFeveloped in the Learner-Computer Interaction lab [L2] at the Norwegian University of Scienceand Technology (NTNU), in cooperation with the University of South-Eastern Norway (USN). The system ERCIM NEWS represents an effort to develop an adaptive and interactive environment that provides personalised learning tostudents (Figure 1) [1]. ProTuS covers a complex interplay of learning resources, tasks, instructions, socialdynamics, interactions, and learning analytics aimed at helping students to learn introductory programming [2].The system has been utilised at several universities for over a decade [3].
