  abstract =     "At Georgia Tech, we investigated aspects of student
                 performance in the Introduction to Computing course
                 offered by the College of Computing. Our goal was to
                 investigate the effects of customizing assignments
                 based on individual student needs. This was motivated
                 by the fact that our technology can enable us to create
                 and distribute individualized assignments. Thus, we
                 sought to answer the question, ``In the span of a
                 single academic quarter, can we (a) identify weaknesses
                 in each student's performance, then (b) give them
                 assignments targeted to their individual weaknesses
                 such that (c) we achieve a positive impact on their
                 subsequent performance. Significant results were found
                 with respect to certain aspects of individualization.
                 They suggest individualized assignments can be
                 effective for students who evidence neither very strong
                 nor very weak topical performance.",
