Abstract

IDEs are environments specialized in support during the development of programs. They contain several utilities to code, run, debug, and deploy programs. However, when students work on programming assignments in desktop IDEs, submitting code for evaluation often requires switching context to an external web portal. Raccode is an Eclipse IDE plugin that integrates automated assessment directly into the developer workflow. Students can retrieve programming exercises, run tests locally, submit solutions to Mooshak, and view immediate evaluation results and diagnostic feedback directly inside Eclipse.

Bridging Generative AI and Gamification in Moodle: Design and Evaluation of GamiBot

OASIcs, Volume 145, ICPEC 2026

While Learning Management Systems (LMS) like Moodle are ubiquitous in higher education, they often lack dynamic, personalized academic support. We present GamiBot, an intelligent pedagogical agent natively integrated into Moodle to bridge this gap. GamiBot combines Large Language Model (LLM)…
