متن کاملTeaching Introductory Programming to IS Students: The Impact of Teaching Approaches on Learning Performance
Introductory programming courses are typically required for undergraduate students majoring in Information Systems. Instructors use different approaches to teaching this course: some lecturing and assigning programming exercises, others only assigning programming exercises without lectures. This research compares the effects of these two teaching approaches on learning performance by collecting...
