An integrated package for assessment of student assignments in software engineering
M. R. Collier · 2003
The author describes a software package, running under MSDOS, developed to assist lecturers in the assessment of software assignments. The package itself does not make value judgments upon the work, except when it can do so absolutely, but displays the students' work for assessment by qualified staff members. The algorithms for the package are presented, and the functionality of the components is described. The package can be used for the assessment of software at three stages in the development process: (1) algorithm logic and structure, using Warnier-Orr diagrams; (2) source code structure and syntax in Modula-2; and (3) runtime performance of executable code.
