A Proposal of Blank Element Selection Algorithm for Java Programming Learning

Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) The programming language Java has been widely used in industries and educated in educational institutes due to its excellent developing environments, reliability, and portability. To assist Java educations, we have developed a Web-based Java Programming Learning Assistant System (JPLAS). JPLAS provides the fill-in-blank problem for Java novice students to learn it by filling proper elements into blanks in a Java code. In the paper, we propose a blank element selection algorithm to find a feasible problem that has the unique solution for any blank. This algorithm first generates a simple graph such that a vertex represents a candidate element in the code and an edge is made between two vertices that can be blanked simultaneously. Then, it extracts a clique of the graph to maximize the number of feasible blanks. We applied the algorithm to 100 Java codes and checked the uniqueness of the solutions manually. The results show that by showing the execution results of the three codes, we confirmed the uniqueness of the solutions.
