GitHub Classroom and Travis CI Improved Students’ Grades

Learn how Dr. Shane Wilson saved time and boosted student performance with the help of GitHub Classroom and Travis CI

With some pre-semester planning, Dr. Shane Wilson was able to decrease the time he spent grading by 80 percent and increase the passing rate of his course from 76 to 90 percent. Because Shane already connected Travis CI to his module’s GitHub organization—which teachers can access as a benefit of joining GitHub Education—when a student pushes to their assignment repository or opens a pull request, GitHub automatically notifies Travis CI of the change. Shane has also benefited because GitHub Classroom and Travis CI are saving him time and giving him new ways to guide students.
