Abstract
Many programming misconception collections contain hundreds of entries with little guidance on which misconceptions to prioritize. We report on a refinement of a teaching-relevance framework for a web-based misconception repository for Java/Processing. Three instructors evaluated two criteria, Learner Discoverability and Learning Barrier (Krippendorff's α=0.57;0.60, rising to 0.9;1.0 after a majority-vote). Together with frequency data, the criteria enable compound filters like Silent Blockers or Rare Traps that, combined with teaching opportunities such as peer instruction quizzes, bridge the gap between misconception knowledge and classroom action.
A web-based misconception repository for Java/Processing is presented, with each entry connecting misconceptions to origins, typical errors, and concrete teaching opportunities, and two teaching-relevance criteria are introduced: Learner Discoverability and Learning Barrier.

An evaluation paradigm that assesses model responses along three criteria grounded in cooperative response theory is designed, suggesting pragmatic redirection is a fundamentally underdeveloped capability in current LLMs.

This work examines six key dimensions: cognitive engagement, cultural responsiveness, formative assessment, formative assessment, power dynamics, accountability, and metacognition, outlining desiderata for LLM tutors in each area and reimagining LLMs’ role.

This study considers if statements as they comprise some of the semantically simplest compound statements in Python, to provide an overview that goes deeper and beyond mere frequency statistics, together with noteworthy examples of student errors that may further guide the development of automated systems.

Findings indicate that behavioral signals present at the very start of an exercise contain useful clues about whether a student will ultimately solve the problem, and that keystroke-level editing logs provide additional value for early prioritization beyond execution logs alone.
Large Language Models (LLMs) are reshaping the design and capabilities of intelligent tutoring systems (ITS) by providing powerful generative, reasoning and interaction abilities, which surpass traditional rule-based approaches. This survey presents a structured overview of LLM-based ITS and analyzes how these models t...
