Abstract

Web-client Programming with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript has evolved into an essential aspect of contemporary web application development. If students are equipped with the knowledge and expertise of web-client programming, they will have promising career prospects in the industry. In this paper, we propose the concept of Grammar-concept Understanding Problem (GUP) for web-client programming. GUP tasks students with answering questions related to fundamental grammar concepts in the provided source code. The correctness of the answer is evaluated through string matching against the correct solution. To evaluate the efficacy of GUP, we generated 15 GUP instances and assigned them to 27 master students in Okayama University. Their solution results confirm the validity of the proposal, demonstrating that the generated GUP instances are well-suited for novice students.
