1.1 The twincode platform
To support our study, we have developed the twincode remote pair programming platform, which manages the registration of students, the random allocation to gender-balanced groups, the random allocation into pairs, the random assignment of programming exercises to pairs, and the automatic collection of interaction metrics and dialog messages.
\
As shown in Figure 1, twincode offers a source code editor where the students concurrently develop the solution to a proposed exercise and can validate it against several test cases. It also offers a chat window, where they can collaborate to solve the exercise. Note that a gendered avatar is displayed for the student in the experimental group only (right), but not for the one in the control group (left).
