AI-powered marking

We designed an LLM-powered tool to automate the grading of student code submissions for Source Academy, reducing the workload of Teaching Assistants (Avengers) and improving efficiency.

Stepper rewrite

We revamped the stepper tool for the Source Programming Language into an interactive debugging tool that leverages lambda calculus concepts such as µ-terms to improve recursion visualization. The new stepper also features intuitive AST exploration, offering a deeper grasp of the substitution model.

Java Visualization

Sessions

Improve your SourceAcademy playground experience by working on your Source code together with your friends, seniors, or even your prof!

C compiler

Ever wanted to write C code but didn't want to go through the process of downloading a compiler and setting it all up? We have you covered! CTOWASM is a C Compiler adhered to the C17 standard. It can compile and run your C code all in the browser. Your favourite modules used in Source Academy such as pix_n_flix and sound can be imported and used in this C Compiler as well.

CSE machine

Students can find the environment model of evaluation confusing and difficult to understand. Hence, the CSE Machine is developed to help demonstrate a concrete implementation of the model, and provide a visualisation tool to assist students in learning the new concept.

Notebooks

This project aims to create a Notebook functionality similar to Jupyter Notebooks for students and lecturers. This involves resolving the issues that the current ‘Stories’ has, such as errors with the data visualiser, stepper and CSE machine tools.

LSP implementations for VS Code

CS1101S uses the Source Academy platform to facilitate learning for hundreds of students every year. The Source Academy platform uses the Ace editor for basic syntax highlighting and auto completion, but modern developer tools offer far more than that. This project implements the Language Server Protocol (LSP) for Source, a custom language used for the module, to offer students a better developer experience. This allows students to use any editor of their choice that has support for LSP servers, like NeoVim or VSCode, to write programs for the module, allowing students to leverage editor features that they are already used to.

AI bots for CS1101S and SICP JS

Mastery Check AI for Source Academy offers a dynamic and immersive learning experience that transforms students into active teachers. Inspired by the challenges of the COVID-19 era, this innovative tool simulates real-life interactions by having an Avenger ask probing questions, compelling cadets to clearly explain programming concepts. By fostering a culture of teaching and learning, it builds confidence, reinforces understanding, and identifies areas for improvement through personalized feedback, ensuring that every cadet fully grasps the essential topics required for success.

Exam mode for Source Academy

We attempt to improve Source Academy's ability to ensure the integrity of students' answers during a practical examination.

brwne

Merge conflicts destroy team productivity and kill projects. brwne is a version control system, built on top of git, that makes having a merge conflict incredibly hard. By analysing all your branches, brwne predicts potential conflicts the moment conflicting code is written, providing developers with instantaneous warnings in their IDE rather than days or weeks later when code is pushed or merged. Additionally, brwne automatically "cascades" approved pull requests to all sub-branches, ensuring developers work with the most up-to-date codebase and minimizing integration or regression issues during merges.
