Dear MickyOver,
Thank you for sharing your approach and suggestion. Incorporating a feature that allows students to interact with an executable version of the solution code, without directly accessing the code itself, may be a valuable enhancement. As a workaround, I propose the use of the VPL activity type "Example."
Here's a simplified step-by-step guide to implement this solution:
Best regards, Juan Carlos.
Coming from Student program test inside VPL questions:
"Currently, what I do with my students is assign them a task along with a brief description of the type of program I want them to code. Additionally, I provide them with an executable (.exe) file since we program in C/C++, which allows them to run the program and freely interact with it. Afterward, they attempt to replicate the program based on their interaction. I adopt this approach because there are many nuances that are easier to understand and observe through the executable program rather than through a description alone.
That's why I was wondering if there is a way for students to have an additional button, let's say a "Run" button, that executes my solution code (which would not be visible to them) and enables them to test the program as I mentioned earlier. The "Run" button was just an example; I would be open to any solution that achieves a similar result."
I would like to suggest incorporating the teacher's corrected code, which could be executed by the students to test the program.
Thank you for your attention and assistance."
