Tuesday, May 30

  • met new people
  • heard some people talk
  • ate some panera
  • heard more talking
  • Started to get up to speed with TA Bot project.
  • In particular, I read a paper (``Experiences with TA-Bot in CS1") highlighting experiences with using TA Bot for Marquette CS classes, and read a survey that was given out to assess the effectiveness of the TA Bot.
    • starting to understand the leveling system: it only concerns test cases, and the levels represent difficulty of the tests (higher levels corner/edge cases for example)
    • big emphasis on the TBS system to encourage students to start work early, but many did not like it
    • how are the learning outcomes affected? how do we measure good learning outcomes
  • Also, got started with looking at the database of submission scores from TA Bot, and am beginning to look at Python libraries that will help me manipulate this data.
    • using base code as a reference
    • pandas library: I understand the very basics of series and data frames
    • need to understand sorting/grouping/splitting
