Abstract
Programming must be evaluated as a subject when taught in high schools. As a result, increasing the efficiency of question generation and grading has become a pressing concern. Waquema is a system for automatically generating and grading programming problems that we created. Waquema is available in the following two versions: web (generates web pages) and cloud (generates Google Forms). At our university, we used the questions generated by Waquema’s cloud version for exercises and exams in lectures. The system was then evaluated using a student questionnaire survey. We also conducted a questionnaire survey of the teachers who used the system and evaluated the time required for the exercises and examinations. The results showed that the difficulty level of the generated problems was appropriate for the students, and that the system could reduce the time required to prepare for the exercises.
