Abstract(s)
Managing programming exercises require several heterogeneous systems such as
evaluation engines, learning objects repositories and exercise resolution environments. The
coordination of networks of such disparate systems is rather complex. These tools would be too
specific to incorporate in an e-Learning platform. Even if they could be provided as pluggable
components, the burden of maintaining them would be prohibitive to institutions with few
courses in those domains. This work presents a standard based approach for the coordination of
a network of e-Learning systems participating on the automatic evaluation of programming
exercises. The proposed approach uses a pivot component to orchestrate the interaction among
all the systems using communication standards. This approach was validated through its
effective use on classroom and we present some preliminary results.
