New Methodology of Information Education with "Computer Science Unplugged"
نویسندگان
چکیده
We introduced “Computer Science Unplugged” to our classes in junior and senior high schools. “Unplugged” is an education method of computer science without students using a computer at all. For our classes, we developed original teaching materials and methods for Unplugged. As a result, the students could learn the topics of computer science with interest by using Unplugged. They enjoyed the games in Unplugged and thought about the topics deeply at the same time. We confirmed that students enhanced their motivations, thinking abilities and imaginations

متن کاملCS Unplugged with Assisted Digital Materials for Handicapped People at Schools
We report practice lessons in 'Computer Science Unplugged’ (CS Unplugged) with assisted digital materials. CS Unplugged involves physical or group activities that lead students to computer science, and it is an excellent method of informatics education for beginners. However, such activities are not always easy for all students. Therefore, we designed various digital materials to assist student...
متن کاملLearning Based On Computer Science Unplugged in Computer Science Education: Design, Development, and Assessment
Although, all high school students in Japan are required to learn informatics, many of them do not learn this topic sufficiently. In response to this situation, we propose a support package for high school informatics classes. To examine what students learned and if they sufficiently understood the context of the lessons, a questionnaire survey was distributed to 186 students. We analyzed the r...
متن کاملAlgorithms Unplugged : a Card Game of the Bebras-like Tasks for High Schools Students
The way to ensure that students will learn informatics (computer science) concepts is focused on learner's intrinsical motivation. Informatics concepts based on tasks and puzzles raise students' interest. Teachers need diverse activities that can lead students to deeper understanding. Algorithms are very important part of informatics. Thus we need to introduce various algorithms even at school....
متن کاملA New Hybrid Framework for Filter based Feature Selection using Information Gain and Symmetric Uncertainty (TECHNICAL NOTE)
Feature selection is a pre-processing technique used for eliminating the irrelevant and redundant features which results in enhancing the performance of the classifiers. When a dataset contains more irrelevant and redundant features, it fails to increase the accuracy and also reduces the performance of the classifiers. To avoid them, this paper presents a new hybrid feature selection method usi...
