Title
A mobile learning application for parsons problems with automatic feedback
Abstract
In this paper, we present a tool that facilitates the learning of programming by providing a mobile application for Parsons problems. These are small assignments where learners build programs by ordering and indenting fragments of code. Parsons problems are well-suited to the mobile context as the assignments form small chunks of learning content that individually require little time to go through and may be freely divided across multiple learning sessions. Furthermore, in response to previous analysis of students using a web environment for Parsons problems, we describe improvements to the automatic feedback given in these assignments.
