Boost the Performance of Computer Science Professors and Students

beecrowd was the first online judge I met. What started as a tool to carry out university activities, became my first base of studies for programming competitions, allowing me to reach an international competition and make a good networking to start my professional career.

I have been using beecrowd for years, and it was crucial during the pandemic, providing means for carrying out remote practices for a large number of simultaneous students. We use the platform in engineering courses at the Federal University of ABC.

I like beecrowd Academic because I can create classes, engage students, define exercises, and see their progress in just one screen. It is amazing!

The use of the beecrowd platform has been an extremely rewarding experience with a positive impact, both in the evolution and training of the members of our teams, as well as in the personal growth of each individual member, and also expanding the benefits of making the platform the standard for evaluating the developers who want to join our team.

My first experience with beecrowd was in 2020 while doing programming exercises to improve my grade at FATEC-SJC college. Practicing every day, after 2 years, I got ranked 1st place in the platform's ranking and today I work as a Software Engineer at isaac, a company where the CTO met me through beecrowd. It was worth the effort to solve each exercise over the last few years.

beecrowd enriches the learning journey of technology courses, combining theory with practice through a wide range of activities. Our professors create activities aligned with the content of the classes. The gamification and interaction with the student community make the process even more engaging and effective.

Preparing and correcting assignments each semester was a burden for those responsible for assessments: it resulted in delays in student feedback. With the beecrowd platform, you simply select problems from the already available, tested and well categorized problem repository. The problem repository helps students go beyond their assignments by strengthening their programming concepts. The immediate feedback helps students improve their debugging skills and is something that gives young programmers a glimpse into the exciting world of competitive programming!!

Collaborations starting with a productive brainstorming are always the best. But beecrowd also delivered on the promise of organizing an awesome online programming competition for SAP

I discovered the beecrowd platform during my undergraduate studies on algorithms, in early 2016. With it I was challenged to learn new content, in addition to the normal curriculum, which helped me to develop logical thinking and prepare myself for programming marathons and for the labor market.

We had a great experience working with beecrowd, not only what concerns the competitive programming platform itself, but also the value added in Marketing, Analytics and a lot of very useful advice that we got from them. Definitely a successful experience that we will redo next year!

My first contact with beecrowd was in 2014 when I started training for programming competitions. It was by practicing at the platform that I developed the desire to learn more about algorithms. This curiosity made me choose to take a master's degree in graph theory and computational complexity. In addition to that, by practicing at beecrowd I also prepared myself to do interviews at the big techs.

The beecrowd platform is an excellent tool for teaching and learning algorithms and programming, especially for people who intend to participate in competitions such as the Programming Marathon. I use beecrowd in many courses I teach at the university, and it's a great way to motivate students to learn more about a wide variety of computing topics

I have been using beecrowd in my programming subjects for over 2 years. It's a total success! In addition to making an introduction with the student to the area of competitive programming, students already get used to the input and output pattern. Super recommended!

Organizing a programming competition is a challenging task even for a software company. Thus, we were happy to partner with beecrowd who took over the end-to-end organization of the entire event quickly with minimal effort on our side!

beecrowd platform is a great tool for those who want to learn programming or practice competitive programming. Anyone from beginners to experienced programmers can benefit. There is a huge repository of information and a lot to learn from there that can help those who want to advance their career in software programming.

I have been using the beecrowd Academic tool quite often here at IF Goiano - Campus Rio Verde, both with basic programming students and with experienced marathoners. The results are always excellent, as the problem base is extensive and provides us with good exercise options for every situation.

We use beecrowd as one of the main exercise and assessment tools at Impacta College, present in almost all courses related to Information Technology. In numbers, there are more than 2300 students registered, 50 classes created and dozens of positions conquered in the general ranking of institutions that joined the platform.

We have been using the beecrowd Academic platform as a way to guide the entire teaching process of software development, as well as to measure the effectiveness of teaching and the evolution of people. The results are incredible and the receptivity of the collaborators is very high.

My first contact with beecrowd was in 2019. After understanding the platform's scoring system, where each challenge solved is scored by programming language, I solved approximately 450 challenges in more than 12 languages each and managed to reach 1st place in the ranking. I like to program and learn new languages and I found this score by programming language very interesting.

We have been using beecrowd in the Introduction to Python Programming courses at the Informatics Institute at UFRGS. The experience has been very positive. The tool helps professors formulate assignments more accurately and provides immediate feedback to students. In this way, the student knows if they are doing something wrong and have the opportunity to ask questions on the spot, without having to wait for the professors' manual correction.

The tool was essential for the discipline in a remote classroom system. I had already used it in a face-to-face system and, on both occasions, the students' learning and growth process had a great impact. It is visible the improvement of students who perform the activities versus those who do not.

I have been using beecrowd platform since 2017, for my personal learning of programming languages, structures and algorithms. As a teaching tool, the platform is very effective in motivating students to program, learning algorithms and data structures, always focusing on good code performance.

I've been using beecrowd (since the former URI Online Judge) for almost 10 years now. I am currently a professor at UNILA (Foz do Iguaçu/BR) and I use beecrowd Academic tool in all my programming classes. It's amazing how easily students learn key programming concepts through practice.

I use the beecrowd Academic tool at UNESP in the introductory course on algorithms. The students can deal with specific problems and find ways to propose computational solutions to them. In addition, such an approach is beneficial in illustrating the importance of testing tasks in software development.

I use beecrowd Academic in Database classes in the Bachelor of Information Systems course. The tool is very useful and allows students to apply the knowledge acquired during the class in a playful way. Gamification favors the use of the tool in addition to allowing users to have access to other situations such as championships that happen frequently. Finally, beecrowd is a platform that favors the preparation of academics for the job market.

I have been using beecrowd for a long time in the programming disciplines of technical courses and college. The exercises are available in very good quantity for each topic of content, which makes it possible to select lists of exercises at different levels according to the class.

The beecrowd platform adds value to both the professor and the student. There is significant potential to accelerate learning and follow-up. In addition, I observe the possibility of adding new functionalities covering additional stages of the computing teaching cycle. It is important to strengthen the environment for this tool, as technological knowledge is and will be even more critical for the development of any nation.

I have been using beecrowd since 2019 with excellent results in programming classes in general. A tool like this is very useful and practical. I have organized competitions with the platform as well, with great success.

beecrowd has been an excellent learning tool for my students. Basic subjects have more credibility with self-correction, I recommend it to all professors.

I have been using the tool in an introductory object-oriented programming (C++) course. I really like the possibility of identifying the level of difficulty and the concepts involved in each question.

I use beecrowd for my first semester students to train logic outside of class. I was able to monitor the students' efforts during the semester. The tool allows students, in addition to solving the activities sent by the professor, to solve other challenges. For the professor, the tool facilitates the correction and preparation of learning reports.

beecrowd has been an essential tool for us to evaluate the evolution of our students' learning and to validate the content that has been worked on in our training programs.
