Abstract
Conference Title: 2018 IEEE Frontiers in Education Conference (FIE) Conference Start Date: 2018, Oct. 3 Conference End Date: 2018, Oct. 6 Conference Location: San Jose, CA, USA In our quest to create conditions for greater and more powerful learning for our students, we have experimented with giving students a chance to resubmit programming assignments. The resubmission option would come after they receive a grade and feedback on their original submission. This paper describes a quantitative study of an introductory Java programming course at Brandeis University where we offered the resubmission option. We show a particular approach to collecting and analyzing the data and reach preliminary conclusions about the impact of resubmissions on learning outcomes.
