Dear All,

I am a Lecturer at Middlesex University in London. We have been teaching Racket for the past 3 years to first year students in CS (class size is approx 140 student) and so far we have assessed students by “observing” their progress on “small competencies”. We call these “Student Observable Behaviours”, you can find some details in this paper: http://www.rmnd.net/pubs/els14.pdf (see section 4).

This approach works well especially for students who are continuously engaged. However, we feel that for some students we fail to capture their ability to develop a more “substantial” piece of code.

If you are teaching Racket, would you mind sharing your assessment strategies?

Thanks!
Franco
