Abstract
Our CS Intelligent Tutoring System (ITS), ChiQat-Tutor, aims at aiding students in overcoming the initial difficulties in CS education, such as learning data structures. Here, we show our work on utilizing Worked-out Examples (WOE) in our linked list lesson. Despite being a promising strategy, we find that it can be detrimental to student growth.
