Title
Experiences on Using TRAKLA2 to Teach Spatial Data Algorithms
Abstract
This paper reports on the results of a two year project in which visual algorithm simulation exercises were developed for a spatial data algorithms course. The success of the project is studied from several point of views, i.e., from developer's, teachers's, and student's perspective. The amount of work, learning outcomes, and feasibility of the system has been estimated based on the data gathered during the project. The results are encouraging, which motivates to extend the concept also for other courses in the future.
