Abstract

Nowadays, Android is the most popular operating system for mobile devices. To enhance the education of mobile application developments, Android Programming Learning Assistance System (APLAS) has been proposed to help students for its self-learning. However, in the current implementation, the teacher can only check the final answers of students for APLAS assignments at the end of the course. To save at-risk students, it is better to check the progress of solving them using Android Studio on their PCs. This paper presents an implementation of the solution progress monitoring function in APLAS. It periodically collects log files of Android Studio and shows the progress at the interface. For evaluations, we asked 32 students taking the Android programming course in the Department of Computer Engineering, Makassar State University, Indonesia, to solve nine tasks in APLAS with this function. Since using this function, the results showed a reduction in the number of dropped-out students. The teacher could identify and assist students who are experiencing difficulties at the early stage of the course.
