Abstract

This paper presents a model for integrating student activity traces in a collaborative programming project using SVN, and relates different attributes of the SVN activities to student and team performance. We show how student participation patterns can be related to the grades of their group programming projects. Graph theory, entropy analysis and statistical techniques are applied to process and analyze data.
