Many commercial or open-source systems for organizing courses are available, offering access to course materials, communication support, and receiving and grading student submissions. However, most of these systems are by default not ideally prepared to address specific demands of Computer Science (CS) education. We explore how Moodle as one of the most popular and free systems can be better adapted to support the needs of CS education and provide concrete guidance on features and extensions that could be explored. This report and work based on it can significantly improve courses for educators and students alike.

Abstract

Many commercial or open-source systems for organizing courses are available, offering access to course materials, communication support, and receiving and grading student submissions. However, most of these systems are by default not ideally prepared to address specific demands of Computer Science (CS) education. We explore how Moodle as one of the most popular and free systems can be better adapted to support the needs of CS education and provide concrete guidance on features and extensions that could be explored. This report and work based on it can significantly improve courses for educators and students alike.
