ABSTRACT
Previous investigations of student errors have typically fo- cused on samples of hundreds of students at individual in- stitutions. This work uses a year's worth of compilation events from over 250,000 students all over the world, taken from the large Blackbox data set. We analyze the frequency, time-to-x, and spread of errors among users, showing how these factors inter-relate, in addition to their development over the course of the year. These results can inform the de- sign of courses, textbooks and also tools to target the most frequent (or hardest to x) errors.Categories and Subject Descriptors

1. INTRODUCTION
Knowledge about students' mistakes and the time taken to x errors is useful for many reasons. For example, Sadler et al [10] suggest that understanding student misconceptions is important to educator ecacy. Knowing which mistakes novices are likely to make or nding challenging informs the writing of instructional materials, such as textbooks, and can help improve the design and impact of beginner's IDEs or other educatoinal programming tools. Previous studies that have investigated student errors dur- ing [Java] programming have focused on cohorts of up to 600 students at a single institution [1, 4, 5, 7, 8, 13].

aords an opportunity to observe the mistakes of a large number of students across many institutions { for example, in one year of data, the project collected error messages and Java code from around 265,000 users worldwide. A previ- ous study by the authors utilized four months of data from Blackbox to study educators opinions against the frequency of mistakes [2]. The contribution in our proposed paper is to go further, and provide a more detailed investigation into characteristics of the mistakes, trying to answer the follow- ing research questions: What are the most frequent mistakes in a large-scale multi-institution data set? What are the most common errors, and common classes of errors? Which errors take the shortest or longest time to x? How do these errors evolve during the academic terms and academic year?2. RELATED WORK
The concept of monitoring student programming behav- ior and mistakes has a long history in computing education research. The series of workshops on Empirical Studies of Programming [11] in the 1980s had several papers making use of this technique for Pascal and other languages. More recently, there have been many such studies specically fo- cused on Java, which is also the topic of this study. Many of these studies used compiler error messages to classify mistakes. Jadud [8] looked in detail at student mis- takes in Java and how students went about solving them. Tabanao et al. [13] looked at the association between errors and student course performance. Denny et al. [4] looked at how long students take to solve dierent errors. Dy and Rodrigo [5] looked at improving the error messages given to students. Ahmadzadeh et al. [1] looked at student error frequencies and debugging behavior. Jackson et al. [7] iden- tied the most frequent errors among their novice program- ming students. All six of these studies looked at cohorts of (up to 600) students from a single institution. These studies used compiler error messages to classify errors, while early results from McCall and K olling [9] suggest that compiler error messages have an imperfect (many-to-many) mapping to student misconceptions. Our study is novel in that it looks at student mistakes from a much larger number of students (over 250,000) from a large number of institutions1, thus providing more robust
data about error frequencies, and error commonality. The Blackbox work was originally presented with a brief list of the most frequent compiler error messages [3], but in this study we do not simply use compiler error messages to clas- sify errors. Instead, we borrow error classications from Hristova et al. [6], which are based on surveying educators to ask for the most common Java mistakes they saw among their students.3. METHOD
3.1 Student Mistakes
We use the 18 mistakes from our previous study [2] as a basis for our analysis, which in turn were derived from Hristova et al's [6] twenty student mistakes (derived from interviewing educators). The eighteen mistakes, labeled A through R, are informally categorized as follows:Misunderstanding (or forgetting) syntax:
A: Confusing the assignment operator (=) with the
comparison operator (==).For example:if (a = b) ...
C: Unbalanced parentheses, curly or square brackets and quotation marks, or using these dierent symbols interchangeably.For example:while (a == 0]
D: Confusing \short-circuit" evaluators (&&and||)
with conventional logical operators (&and|).For example:if ((a == 0) & (b == 0)) ...
E: Incorrect semi-colon after an if selection structure before the if statement or after the for or while repeti- tion structure before the respective for or while loop.For example:
if (a == b); return 6; F: Wrong separators in for loops (using commas in- stead of semi-colons)For example:for (int i = 0, i < 6, i++) ...
G: Inserting the condition of an if statement within curly brackets instead of parentheses.For example:if {a == b} ...
H: Using keywords as method or variable names.
For example:int new;
J: Forgetting parentheses after a method call.
For example:myObject.toString;
K: Incorrect semicolon at the end of a method header.For example:
public void foo(); }1 We have no way of measuring the number of institutions inthe Blackbox data, but simply: the 250,000 students mustbe split over at least several hundred institutions.L: Getting greater than or equal/less than or equal
wrong, i.e. using=>or=For example:if (a =< b) ...
P: Including the types of parameters when invoking a method.For example:myObject.foo(int x, String s);
Type errors:
I: Invoking methods with wrong arguments (e.g. wrong types).For example:list.get("abc")
Q: Incompatible types between method return and
type of variable that the value is assigned to.For example:int x = myObject.toString();
Other semantic errors:
B: Use of==instead of.equalsto compare strings.
For example:if (a == "start") ...
M: Trying to invoke a non-static method as if it was static.For example:MyClass.toString();
N: A method that has a non-void return type is called and its return value ignored/discarded.For example:myObject.toString();
O: Control
ow can reach end of non-void method without returning.For example:
public int foo(int x) if (x < 0) return 0; x += 1; R: Class claims to implement an interface, but does not implement all the required methods.For example:class Y implements ActionListener
Note that mistakeN(ignoring the non-void result of a method) is not always an error (e.g. when you call a remove method that returns the item removed, you may not need to do anything with the return value).3.2 Student data
Data about student mistakes was taken from the Black- box data set [3], which collects Java code written by users of BlueJ, the Java beginners' IDE. We used data from the period 1 stSep. 2013 to 31stAug. 2014 (inclusive), as repre- senting a full year. We had two methods of detecting mistakes. For four of the student mistakes,I, M, O, R, we were able to use the com- piler error message directly from Blackbox's compilations to detect the mistake. However, this was not possible for the other errors, as some of them are logical errors that do not cause a compiler error or warning, while in other cases the error messages do not have a one-to-one mapping to our mistakes of interest. Thus for one of the other mistakes (C) we performed a post-lexing analysis (matching brackets) and for the nal thirteen we used a customized permissive parser to parse the source code and look for the errors. The source code of all the tools used is available for analysis or re-use 2. We took each source le in the data set, and tracked the le over time. At each compilation we checked the source le for the eighteen mistakes. If the mistake was present, we then looked forward in time to nd the next compilation where the mistake was no longer present (or until we had no further data for that source le). When the mistake was no longer found { which could have been because the mistake was corrected or because the oending code was removed or commented out { we counted this as one instance of the mistake. Further occurrences in the same source le were treated as further instances. We calculate the time in seconds between the rst appearance of the mistake and the possible x and cap it at 1000 seconds, for any mistake which takes longer than 1000 seconds to x, or is never xed. We also counted the number of distinct users who committed each mistake at least once.4. RESULTS
Our detector is used to look for the number of instances of mistakes, as described in section 3.2. The data set featured37,158,094 compilation events, of which 19,476,087 were suc-
cessful and 17,682,007 were unsuccessful. Each compila- tion may include multiple source les { the total number of source les input to compilation (i.e. each source le may be counted multiple times) was 46,448,212, of which 24,264,603 were compiled successfully and 22,183,609 were not.4.1 Mistakes Overview
The Frequencies, number of Distinct Users and Time-to- Fix results of each dierent mistake are shown in Table 1, along with our informal classication of the error message. It can be seen that although MistakeCis the most frequent, the type and semantic errors are generally more frequent than syntax errors. The ranking of frequency is similar to the ranking of the number of distinct users, as shown in Figure 1. This gure conrms that the number of users is related to the frequency of the mistakes. However, each mistake is not made the same number of times by each user that makes it. Figure 2 shows that some mistakes (F, G, H, L) are generally made only once by the user { a rare mistake, or one that they easily learn from. In contrast, mistakes such asC,IandOare made repeatedly by students { in the case ofC(mismatched brackets), a syntax error, this is likely to be an easy accident, but in the case ofI(wrong types in method call) andO(missing return statement) this is more likely to be a lack of understanding or diculty with the concepts of types and controlquotesdbs_dbs20.pdfusesText_26[PDF] pyramide de maslow
