Towards the Integration of Large Language Models and Automatic Assessment Tools: Enhancing Student Support in Programming Assignments
Bruno Pereira Cipriano, M. M. de L. Silva, Rodrigo Correia, Pedro Alves · 2024
The rise of Large Language Models (LLMs) has sparked discussion in Computer Science Education (CSE) due to their ability to generate code from text prompts.Students may rely on these tools, neglecting core skills like computational thinking and program design.Thus, it's crucial to responsibly integrate them into computer science courses.To address this, we integrated an open-source Automatic Assessment Tool with GPT, enabling students to receive LLM assistance on their programming assignments.This tool can be adopted and improved by educators, promoting more responsible integration of LLMs in CSE.
