Our IT program contains a course, Computer Algorithms (CA) for Second Year of Engineering. This course is newly introduced in the IT curriculum. Before teaching this subject I had interaction with the students who have already studied this subject in the last year. Based on the discussion, I realized that understanding of algorithms is one of the most challenging aspects for the students. Many complicated concepts and algorithms make this course to be a difficult one. Then, I have designed the concept map and OBE approach which determines, what students are expected to achieve after the completion of this course. Also, the activity plan is prepared to implement the OBE approach. The main goal of this paper is to provide an environment that engages the students allowing the construction of knowledge in a meaningful way by incorporating various interactive activities such as poster design, group presentations, animations, Quizzes, etc. This paper presents how the OBE approach for Computer algorithm course is implemented at our Institute.

Abstract


Our IT program contains a course, Computer Algorithms (CA) for Second Year of Engineering. This course is newly introduced in the IT curriculum. Before teaching this subject I had interaction with the students who have already studied this subject in the last year. Based on the discussion, I realized that understanding of algorithms is one of the most challenging aspects for the students. Many complicated concepts and algorithms make this course to be a difficult one. Then, I have designed the concept map and OBE approach which determines, what students are expected to achieve after the completion of this course. Also, the activity plan is prepared to implement the OBE approach. The main goal of this paper is to provide an environment that engages the students allowing the construction of knowledge in a meaningful way by incorporating various interactive activities such as poster design, group presentations, animations, Quizzes, etc. This paper presents how the OBE approach for Computer algorithm course is implemented at our Institute.
