Computer Science (31)The database course is a standard offering within computer science programs, yet the material remains inaccessible to many students because concrete examples and illustrations are too often lacking. The flat format of a paper text is not optimal for providing such materials. Therefore we are creating courseware for the database course that includes both animations and other materials to assist student learning of data modeling, SQL, query optimization and transaction processing. Students will be able to follow query processing through these animations rather than relying on theoretical abstractions. These materials will be valuable irrespective of the text chosen for a particular course. The materials will be evaluated at several different sites in order to judge their value and to optimize them.

数据库课程是计算机科学课程中的一门标准课程，然而由于缺乏具体的例子和插图，许多学生仍然无法获得该课程的材料。纸张文本的平面格式不适合提供这类材料。因此，我们正在为数据库课程制作课件，其中包括动画和其他材料，以帮助学生学习数据建模，SQL，查询优化和事务处理。学生将能够通过这些动画跟踪查询处理，而不是依赖于理论抽象。这些材料将是有价值的，而不是为特定课程选择的文本。这些材料将在几个不同的地点进行评估，以判断它们的价值并对它们进行优化。
