Abstract

Learning about databases is indispensable for individuals studying software engineering or computer science or those involved in the IT industry. We analyzed a remote educational escape room for teaching about databases in four different higher education courses in two consecutive academic years. We employed three instruments for evaluation: a pre- and posttest to assess the escape room’s effectiveness for student learning, a questionnaire to gather students’ perceptions, and a Web platform that unobtrusively records students’ interactions and performance. We show novel evidence that educational escape rooms conducted remotely can be engaging as well as effective for teaching about databases.

通过远程教育密室增强数据库学习能力

对于学习软件工程、计算机科学或从事 IT 行业的人来说，学习数据库知识是必不可少的。我们对连续两个学年在四门不同的高等教育课程中使用远程教育逃生室教授数据库知识的情况进行了分析。我们采用了三种工具进行评估：前测和后测，以评估逃生室对学生学习的有效性；问卷调查，以收集学生的看法；网络平台，以不引人注目的方式记录学生的互动和表现。我们用新颖的证据证明，远程教育逃生室不仅能吸引学生，还能有效地进行数据库教学。

期刊介绍： This magazine provides a journal-quality evaluation and review of Internet-based computer applications and enabling technologies. It also provides a source of information as well as a forum for both users and developers. The focus of the magazine is on Internet services using WWW, agents, and similar technologies. This does not include traditional software concerns such as object-oriented or structured programming, or Common Object Request Broker Architecture (CORBA) or Object Linking and Embedding (OLE) standards. The magazine may, however, treat the intersection of these software technologies with the Web or agents. For instance, the linking of ORBs and Web servers or the conversion of KQML messages to object requests are relevant technologies for this magazine. An article strictly about CORBA would not be. This magazine is not focused on intelligent systems. Techniques for encoding knowledge or breakthroughs in neural net technologies are outside its scope, as would be an article on the efficacy of a particular expert system. Internet Computing focuses on technologies and applications that allow practitioners to leverage off services to be found on the Internet.
