RESEARCH OF A WEB-BASED DATA STRUCTURE VISUAL COURSEWARE

摘要

In this paper, we describe Web-based courseware, which we developed, that use algorithm animation and visualization.It is intended for students in an introductory data structure course.We also discuss the results of a study that we conducted using this courseware.In the study, we measured whether the interactive feature included in the courseware influenced student performance and whether student learning styles were a factor.No significant differences were found.A redesigned, more tightly controlled experiment is planned to more definitively answer this question.
