title = "Rethinking teaching and assessing in a programming course a case study",
abstract = "In this paper we will discuss how the planning and assessment of a first year programming course was changed and the preliminary findings of the influence it had on students' grades. The main teaching method was lecturing followed by practical lessons for students. Also, recording of lectures were available on-line for the students. The assessment was rather traditional with some tasks and assignment during the semester and a final written exam. The organisation of the teaching and assessment was changed with a help of a digital exam assessment system.",
