Knowledge components (KCs) have many applications. In computing education, knowing the demonstration of specific KCs has been challenging. This paper introduces an entirely data-driven approach for: (1) discovering KCs; and (2) demonstrating KCs, using students' actual code submissions. Our system is based on two expected properties of KCs: (1)…

Knowledge tracing (KT) models are a popular approach for predicting students' future performance at practice problems using their prior attempts. Though many innovations have been made in KT, most models including the state-of-the-art Deep KT (DKT) mainly leverage each student's response either as correct or incorrect, ignoring its content. In…

In this paper we present a novel, data-driven algorithm for generating feedback for students on open-ended programming problems. The feedback goes beyond next-step hints, annotating a student's whole program with suggested edits, including code that should be moved or reordered. We also build on existing work to design a methodology for evaluating…
