A heterogeneous group of students starts to study informatics each year. Observations show that students need individual support, to create well educated computer scientists. Unfortunately, this does not scale to large student numbers.

My goal is to offer individual guidance to students in an introductory informatics class in a form that amortizes the expertise of lecturers and tutors. To that purpose I am developing a competency graph and a body of tagged practice materials. The practice materials facilitate assessment of a student's individual state of competence.
