Group colloquium: Final Project Bachelor Students

When: April 17, 2019, 13:30-14:30

Where: Carré 3H

Who: SPECIAL COLLOQUIA

Today we have with us four groups of students who will present the results of their projects related to the development of tools to support education.

 

Title: Horus: An Integrated System for Streamlining Sign-offs

Abstract: Horus is a course management system particularly focussing on the "sign-offs" of assignments. Currently, a teaching assistant who checked an assignment has to put the results in a large spreadsheet. Due to the size increase of the study, a better system is in high demand. Horus aims to replace the administrative inconveniences that sign-offs currently cause and make the whole process easier for students, teaching assistants, and module coordinators alike

Title: Prosses: Towards a Usable and Useful Automatic Code Assessment System

AbstractAutomatic code assessment has been topic for research since programming education emerged. The resulting tools answer associated research questions, but lack the usability for practical application. Therefore, we have designed Prossess. By focussing on usability and extensibility we have created a system applicable in education. We will present this system, report on its underlying design choices and discuss future development.

Title: TeamLab: A system for efficiently engineering smart groups

Abstract: The challenge of creating groups that facilitate learning during a course is becoming more and more of a concern as the number of university students increases every year. Several factors contribute to group learning quality: the level of prior knowledge, students’ personal motivation and skills and group diversity. Teamlab smartly faces this challenge with its key features: standardized creation of an assessment tool and automatic grouping based on personalised rules.

Title: Team-Based Learning application. Videogames for education

Abstract: Our aim is to digitalize the learning approach known as TBL or team-based learning, such that becomes more scalable to large classes and easier for the teacher, yet remains engaging for the students. We will achieve this by creating a web application to replace the current scratchpapers, thus automatically checking the submitted answers.
