Abstract

This poster provides insight into the use of an issue tracker for the management of assignment feedback within an introductory course in computer science (CS). Students have made use of Github for three successive years, and the issue tracker has become one of the key mechanisms for managing formative feedback. This approach has yielded three key benefits: increased student engagement in their own feedback; provided an early experience of an authentic and industry desirable communication skill; and created a means to oversee and learn from feedback discussions for the teaching team.
