Integrating On-line Judge into Effective E-learning
The main objective of the EduJudge project is to integrate UVA On-line Judge into an effective educational environment, in order to satisfy the users demand of a greater pedagogic character and, in this way, facilitate the use of On-line Judge in official courses of the mathematical and programming field (secondary education and higher education).
The UVA On-line Judge is an on-line programming trainer created in 1995 with the aim of training users who participate in worldwide programming competitions. Currently this tool has approximately 64,000 users from many different countries and more than 2,000 problems.
This project comes up on the one hand, from the necessity of improving mathematical, science and technological competences at European level as is shown by the Education and Training European Policy and, on the other hand, from the success of programming contests at European and international level in secondary and higher education The UVA online judge will be integrated into the open source e-learning platform Moodle and the QUESTOURnament system. QUESTOURnament is a system that is currently running to develop contests supported by telematics within the classroom. Besides, a repository of problems will be created in order to improve the accessibility and use of algorithm problems.
By means of this system students can develop technological and mathematical abilities, and also motivation, creativity and abilities for time and knowledge management which are very important skills for subsequent learning processes and future jobs
