Virtual Tutorials, Wikipedia Books, and Multimedia-Based Teaching for Blended Learning Support in a Course on Algorithms and Data Structures - scientific work related to Wikipedia quality published in 2014, written by Jenny Knackmuß and Reiner Creutzburg.
Overview
The aim of this paper is to describe the benefit and support of virtual tutorials, Wikipedia books and multimedia-based teaching in a course on Algorithms and Data Structures. Authors describe work and experiences gained from using virtual tutorials held in Netucate iLinc sessions and the use of various multimedia and animation elements for the support of deeper understanding of the ordinary lectures held in the standard classroom on Algorithms and Data Structures for undergraduate computer sciences students. Authors will describe the benefits, form, style and contents of those virtual tutorials. Furthermore, authors mention the advantage of Wikipedia books to support the blended learning process using modern mobile devices. Finally, authors give some first statistical measures of improved student’s scores after introducing this new form of teaching support.
