Abstract

This paper describes the software developed to support the first two years of the Computer Science curriculum at the Rochester Institute of Technology. The system supports student retrieval of files and data; on-line submission with immediate, automated testing and archiving of student work; and assists in grading the work and the associated record keeping.
