Abstract

In response to the demands of increasing student numbers, the BOSS system for submission and assessment has been constructed to enable student programming assignments to be submitted and tested on-line. More recent developments of this system have been concerned with the addition of electronic marking facilities that incorporate both automated marking, resulting from the automated testing, and manual marking in a secure environment. This paper briefly reviews the system and describes in detail the electronic marksheets, their functionality, and their user-interface.
