Description
Summary:Engineering students often have to deliver small computer programs in many engineering courses. Instructors have to evaluate these assignments according to the learning goals and their quality, but ensure as well that there is no plagiarism. In this paper, we report the experience of using mining software repositories techniques in a multimedia networks course where students have to submit several software programs. We show how we have proceeded, the tools that we have used and provide some useful links and ideas that other lecturers may use.
