Title
Including Active Learning in an Online Database Management Course for Industrial Engineering Students
Abstract
Teaching a database management course to industrial engineering students can be a difficult task, since the students are usually not especially interested in this non-core topic. The students show their low motivation by acting as very passive learners. Another complicating matter is that the course is taught online, which also increases the risk for dropouts. Therefore, we decided to address these two problems by introducing active learning elements in the course. In this paper, we present the current state of the database management course together with the active learning strategy incorporated into the teaching framework. This work has still to be considered as preliminary results, where we elucidate our first experimental findings.
