Actions to take:
- Learning outcomes for courses need to be compared to look at overlap
- Codin Game - competition site. - allows multiple languages - Automated testing
- Large enough bank of questions - Automated grading
- Measuring good design and coding quality
- Joint competition - Arne
Tools
- SonarQube: Code quality - automated feedback.
