  1. (, Proceedings of Computer-Supported Collaborative Learning)
    We investigate how a collaborative software development paradigm in the workplace can be adapted for collaborative project-based learning in the classroom. The paradigm, called Mob Programming, where a group of co-located developers work on one problem concurrently, inspires Online Mob Programming which structures groups of 3-6 students collaborating online, in a platform integrated with automated support for role rotation. Results from this study comparing OMP scaffolding with self-organization in a university computer science course shows OMP scaffolds help students adopt OMP roles without a significant drop in group product quality.

  2. (, Proceedings of the 20th Meeting of Artificial Intelligence in Education (AIED2019))
    This paper reports on work adapting an industry standard team practice referred to as Mob Programming into a paradigm called Online Mob Programming (OMP) for the purpose of encouraging teams to reflect on concepts and share work in the midst of their project experience. We present a study situated within a series of three course projects in a large online course on Cloud Computing. In a 3x3 Latin Square design, we compare students working alone and in two OMP configurations (with and without transactivity-maximization team formation designed to enhance reflection). The analysis reveals the extent to which grading on the produced software rewards teams where highly skilled individuals dominate the work. Further, compliance with the OMP paradigm is associated with greater evidence of group reflection on concepts and greater shared practice of programming.
