Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) The programming language Java has been educated in a lot of universities and professional schools due to the reliability, portability, and easy learning. To assist this Java education, our group has developed a Web-based Java Programming Learning Assistant System (JPLAS) by supporting self-studies of students. JPLAS has the fill-in-the-blank problem function for Java novice students to study Java reserved words. In this function, a teacher first generates fill-in-the-blank problems automatically by removing the specified reserved words randomly from a sample Java code in the database. Then, a student can repeatedly submit answers to the problems until all the answers are correct as self-studies. In this paper, we implement the score graph function so that the students can complete with each other in solving fill-in-the-blank problems by referring the current scores of other students. We apply the function to students in a Java programming class in our department to evaluate the effectiveness of our proposal.
