Abstract :
A system was developed to support teaching computer programming to a group of students who have common questions and make common mistakes on practice computer programs. The system extrapolates the causes and syntaxes of students´ compilation errors by analyzing the trends of past compilation errors and presents the extrapolated result to the teacher in real time. By using the system, a teacher can understand in real time students´ programming mistakes when they are writing computer programs, and can appropriately teach computer programming to a group of students who have common problems
