Abstract

This paper presents a distributed asynchronous system which allows remote evaluation of students´ submissions. This system is being developed in the context of the EduJudge project whose aim is to provide a greater pedagogic character for the UVa online judge, an on-line programming trainer. The UVa online judge has been integrated into the e-learning platform Moodle and a competitive tool called QUESTOURnament. More specifically, this paper focuses on the design of the user interface of the evolved QUESTOURnament tool. It has been adapted to be able to manage different competition strategies and to have a centralized system for the management of questionnaires.
