The success of technology enhanced learning can be increased by tailoring the content and the learning resources for every student; thus, optimizing the learning process. This study proposes a method for evaluating content difficulty and knowledge proficiency of users based on modified Elo-rating algorithm. The calculated ratings are used further in the teaching process as a recommendation of coding exercises that try to match the user's current knowledge. The proposed method was tested with a programming tutoring system in object-oriented programming course. The results showed positive findings regarding the effectiveness of the implemented Elo-rating algorithm in recommending coding exercises, as a proof-of-concept for developing adaptive and automatic assessment of programming assignments.
