Conejo, Ricardo; Barros, Beatriz; Bertoa, Manuel F. – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2019
This paper presents an innovative method to tackle the automatic evaluation of programming assignments with an approach based on well-founded assessment theories (Classical Test Theory (CTT) and Item Response Theory (IRT)) instead of heuristic assessment as in other systems. CTT and/or IRT are used to grade the results of different items of…
