Presentation Transcript

  1. Data Structures on the Web NGI PROJECT PRESENTATION for SUMMER 2002 Presented by Neha Kumar Advised by Prof. Michael Clancy

  2. Agenda • Data Structures today • What is WISE? • Data Structures in WISE • Why WISE? • Long-term objectives NGI Research Presentation

  3. 3 hours of lecture 2 hours of lab 1 hour of discussion hours of homework - They listen - They start to experiment… - They listen - They struggle Data Structures today NGI Research Presentation

  4. What they don’t do enough • Learn by experimenting • Test their learning • Recognize gaps in their knowledge NGI Research Presentation

  5. What is WISE? • Web-Inquiry Science Environment • Collection of activities for students • Online database of learning material NGI Research Presentation

  6. Activities in WISE • Online reading • Assessment exercises • Quizzes • Online discussions • Brainstorming sessions NGI Research Presentation

  7. The WISE CS3 Course Portal NGI Research Presentation

  8. The Learning Environment NGI Research Presentation

  9. Data Structures in WISE • Course divided into topics called “Projects” • Each “Project” has its set of “Activities” • Each “Activity” is divided into “Steps” NGI Research Presentation

  10. Java Programming Activation Records Inheritance Exceptions Testing Linked Lists & Arrays Game-tree Search Asymptotic Analysis Hash Tables Trees Binary Heaps Binary Trees 2-3-4 Trees Graphs Sorting Algorithms Randomized Analysis WISE Projects for 61B NGI Research Presentation

  11. Close-up on Graphs • Project: Graphs • Introduction • Terms to Know • Representation: Adjacency Matrices and Lists • Traversal: DFS and BFS • Homework: Modeling a Map of Berkeley NGI Research Presentation

  12. Creating a project in WISE NGI Research Presentation

  13. WISE and 61B: how they fit • Activities proceed in small steps • WISE activities enable thorough learning • Progress is easy to monitor • Weaker students get individual attention • Students benefit from group discussions • They learn by doing! NGI Research Presentation

  14. Why WISE? Studies done over the summer show • Students find WISE more enjoyable • They perform better overall “I like the way lectures are combined with problems online. I am learning more about CS than I ever did before. This method of teaching is very practical and works a lot better than regular lecture/lab/discussion sections…” - Summer CS3 Student NGI Research Presentation

  15. Long-term Objectives • Adapt WISE to all lower-division CS courses • Export curriculum to UC Merced NGI Research Presentation
