Webb, Kevin C.; Zingaro, Daniel; Liao, Soohyun Nam; Taylor, Cynthia; Lee, Cynthia; Clancy, Michael; Porter, Leo – ACM Transactions on Computing Education, 2022
A Concept Inventory (CI) is an assessment to measure student conceptual understanding of a particular topic. This article presents the results of a CI for basic data structures (BDSI) that has been previously shown to have strong evidence for validity. The goal of this work is to help researchers or instructors who administer the BDSI in their own…

Liao, Soohyun Nam; Zingaro, Daniel; Thai, Kevin; Alvarado, Christine; Griswold, William G.; Porter, Leo – ACM Transactions on Computing Education, 2019
As enrollments and class sizes in postsecondary institutions have increased, instructors have sought automated and lightweight means to identify students who are at risk of performing poorly in a course. This identification must be performed early enough in the term to allow instructors to assist those students before they fall irreparably behind.…

Bailey Lee, Cynthia; Garcia, Saturnino; Porter, Leo – ACM Transactions on Computing Education, 2013
Peer Instruction (PI) is an active learning pedagogical technique. PI lectures present students with a series of multiple-choice questions, which they respond to both individually and in groups. PI has been widely successful in the physical sciences and, recently, has been successfully adopted by computer science instructors in lower-division,…
