arXiv:2606. 03814v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This paper investigates rubric-aware, multitask fine-tuning of transformer models for automated grading of introductory C++ programming assignments, with the goal of producing grade predictions that better reflect instructor grading behavior than general-purpose LLMs.

The paper introduces CodeInsight, a large-scale dataset of over 3 million code submissions from 3,286 undergraduate students in two introductory C++ courses, capturing test‑case outcomes, timestamps, and source code. It presents a benchmark that evaluates various modeling approaches—including a Recurrent State Space Model and an LLM‑based predictor—on their ability to predict iterative problem‑solving dynamics such as performance changes and error persistence. The study finds that the RSSM outperforms other models on most courses, while the LLM generates full submissions but with lower predictive accuracy, suggesting it functions more as a generative solver than a behavior predictor.
