This paper explores the effectiveness of pair programming in Computer Science education, specifically focusing on its impact on student performance and confidence during formal assessments. Drawing on research from McChesney (2013) and other studies, we examine how collaborative coding practices in Computer Science and Engineering courses can enhance learning outcomes. The analysis considers various assessment components, including coursework and weekly tests, and underlines key factors that contribute to student success in pair programming environments.
