WEAT

The Worked Example Authoring Tool (WEAT) is an innovative tool designed to facilitate the creation of worked examples for programming education through a human-AI collaboration approach. By integrating ChatGPT, WEAT assists instructors in generating line-by-line explanations for code examples in Java and Python. Instructors can provide the code and problem statement, and WEAT uses ChatGPT to generate explanations for each line of code. These explanations can then be reviewed, edited, and added into the worked examples, streamlining the process of creating educational programming materials.
