Since the capability to work in teams has become a key requirement on computer science graduates, computer education not only embraces technical skills of computer development but also necessitates communication and interaction among learners. In this paper, it is proposed to adapt the PBL methodology that is especially designed to be integrated into computer curricula in order to promote collaborative...
Computer courses generally describe a computer system in layered model, with each course corresponds to a layer. In actual teaching process, the teaching contents and experiments of each course are relatively independent, lacking of systematic and scientific. After learning these courses, the knowledge students acquire are scattered and independent. They can not easily comprehend the whole multilayer...
The computer network engineering course, one of essential and popular courses to train the network engineer, requires students to master comprehensive theories on network engineering and experienced practice skills. In this paper, we propose the failure case study method for teaching the computer network engineering course. The applications of the failure case study method are presented with six examples...
Economic progress and information technology development have spurred the demand of multi-talents. So cultivating the compound talents with computer application ability is one of the main duties for the Subject Construction of Opto-electronics Engineering. According to this, the hierarchical curriculum system of the computer application education for opto-electronics engineering undergraduates is...
The online discussion forum is a common means of learning for CSCL, because participants can share or exchange their understandings, viewpoints, comments, or critiques of a certain task or solving problems with it. The results of analysing the contents of online discussion forums could describe the characteristics of online discussions. In this study, the 20 undergraduate students registered in a...
Based on the findings from reviewing most Unix textbooks in Chinese universities, we have identified common problems and analyzed their inadequacies, such as the bias of operation system, too many technical terms and inadequate treatment of programming-related content. The discussion about each problem is substantiated with examples, and suggestions are made on possible improvement. This analysis...
Data structure is the core course in the computer major. In this paper we explore the data structures teaching in principles and practices, contents, curriculum system, the practice ability and other aspects. We introduce the bilingual teaching and management mode. And we improved concepts, formed a teaching program, got to be successful in practice.
The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of prior computer knowledge and gender on high school novices' learning of computer science concepts from instructional simulations designed based an experiential-based pedagogical perspective. There were 94 10th-graders taking the introductory course on computer science identified as the low and high prior computer knowledge in this study. Participants'...
In spite of comparable levels of computer access and use by males and females at home and school, women continue to be under represented in careers and education related to the computer and information sciences. In this paper, we describe outreach activities taking place within the wConnect project, a research effort aimed at building a developmental learning community of women in which members at...
When talking about the professional education of Computer Science, we need not only to keep the contents of teaching up-to-date following the revolutionary steps of new-born technology, but also take the teaching methods together with approach to the next level. This paper suggests a creative thought, which takes the gain of students' interests into full consideration. By improving the arrangement...
A new experimental teaching system for computer graphical course was presented. In the system, the students may design programs about graphical methods and submit the experimental data and pictures to database. The system may automatically grade results about students' experiment. The teacher can use handmade perusal. The system can not only educate students' ability of study and design, but also...
The paper shows a working project that organizes a set of jobs to improve the learning of computer networking. It uses virtual machine to create a portable laboratory on which students do hands-on exercises anywhere. It first developed an ability indicator of computer networking. Then an online curriculum material is made and available on the Internet. Students are learning the computer networking...
The embedded technology in the 21st century is one of the most viable high-tech, highly practical, comprehensive and applied. Embedded system is a relatively new course, but also have a strong application background, this is the need for the University's undergraduate curriculum. In this paper, combining the embedded system experiments planning and construction of the base of Computer Science and...
In recent years, the evolution of information technologies has made lots of changes on human activities, such as working, playing, and learning. Furthermore, the learning environment has been changed. Most of the u-learning systems are implemented with RFID as the location-aware technology and some of them even do not provide collaborative instant support. In the study, we propose a collaborative...
This paper reports preliminary pedagogical experiences regarding the deployment of advanced video educational platforms with a full synchronous and asynchronous videoconferencing tool developed. Reinforced by these new tools, active learning is promoted inside Computer Science studies and tutoring is being re-adapted to the new educational model of the European Higher Education Area in a blended learning...
Green computing has been an active research area which studies an efficient use of computing resources. It is a growing import subject that creates an urgent need to train next generation computer scientists or practitioners to think “green.” However, green computing has not yet been well taught in computer science (CS) or computer engineering programs (CE) programs, partly due to the lack of rooms...
Adopting GNU/Linux as the Desktop Operating System is an irreversible trend. To enhance the teaching effectiveness, it is the foremost priority to improve the Linux system management course by offering each student a dedicated Linux machine. However, the concept is impractical to implement due to the huge hardware and maintenance costs. Meanwhile, both multiple-core and virtualization technology are...
The essay takes the “modern information technology” developed by us for example, expounds the basic principles of compiling textbooks for modern information technology in college, demonstrates the constructional methods for system structure of the information technology textbooks in college, and summarizes the compiling characteristics for information technology textbook in college.
Considering of the application fields of Photoshop and vocational education ideas, the teaching contents of Photoshop course have been done by cases based on the teaching characteristics of Computer Image Processing course at graphic design module. This paper has given the teaching flowchart of Photoshop image processing case teaching. According to the teachers and the students, the case teaching...
This paper describes a general model for the integration of portable game devices (e.g. Nintendo DS™) in preexisting e-Learning systems, also known as Learning Management Systems (e.g. Moodle™). This integration simplifies the deployment of educational games in the classroom and provides instructors with information about what students are actually doing with the games. The general model is exemplified...
