A key challenge for computer science educators worldwide is providing effective feedback and support to students, to ensure they are engaged with the course. This includes online feedback on discussion forums as well as feedback on programming assignments. Due to the significant problems of scale that need to be addressed, effective lecturer intervention is difficult, and at the same time the effect of intervention in online discussion forums is challenging to measure accurately. The same problem occurs when marking programming assignments, where detailed, in-depth feedback is often replaced with output from failed testcases, which the students sometimes proceed to address without giving thought to the quality of their overall solutions. The working group will (1) identify and survey existing literature on quantifying lecturer intervention in online discussion forums and on assignment feedback, (2) identify existing datasets that could be used to study intervention in depth, (3) identify key data characteristics and associated tools that can be used to effectively process the data, and (4) identify and outline key recommendations for effective lecturer intervention. The outcome of this working group will be a report but the working group will also bring together researchers focused on understanding effective lecturer intervention, thus contributing to the growth of the community.
