最近的一项研究[7]表明，许多计算机专业的学生在经过入门编程之后，不能开发简单的程序。正常的学生评估应该突出这个问题，但它没有，因此正常的编程能力评估不起作用。我们检查了为什么当前的评估方法(笔试和编程作业)是错误的。我们研究了另一种评估方法(实验室考试)，表明这种评估形式更准确。我们解释了为什么准确的评估对于鼓励学生发展编程能力是必不可少的。
A recent study [7] has shown that many computing students are not able to develop straightforward programs after the introductory programming sequence. Normal student assessment should have highlighted this problem, it did not, therefore normal assessment of programming ability does not work.We examine why current assessment methods (written exams and programming assignments) are faulty. We investigate another method of assessment (the lab exam) and show that this form of assessment is more accurate.We explain why accurate assessment is essential in order to encourage students to develop programming ability.
