“数据结构”课程教学方法的改进

数据结构是计算机专业的核心基础课程之一,它讨论了计算机科学技术领域中最基本的问题,在计算机科学教育中有着重要的地位和作用,但由于其抽象难懂,传统的理论教学无法使学生认识到数据结构课程的作用,更无法理解数据结构下算法的意义,教学效果并不理想。文章从数据结构的教学现状入手,在分析了数据结构教学中存在的问题及传统教学弊端后,提出了理论结合实际,加强实验教学的教学方法。通过采用案例教学,启发式教学使学生的学习从被动变主动,提高学生的学习兴趣,通过改革实验课程的考核方式等手段加强学生的实践能力,实现数据结构课程的教学目标。实践证明,改进的教学方法提高了学生的学习效率,培养了学生的编程能力,教学效果理想。

Discussion on improvement of teaching methods in "data structure" course

The Data Structure is one of the professional basic courses in computer specialty.It discusses the most basic problems in computer science and technology,and has an important position in computer education.It is very Abstract,so is difficult to understand the importance of data structure course and meaning of algorithm for students if only use traditional theory teaching.Based on the current status,problems and shortcoming of data structure teaching,this paper gives teaching methods:integrating theory with practice and paying attention to experimental teaching.The improvement of teaching methods made students to study from passive to active and stimulated the student’s interest through case-based teaching and heuristic teaching.At the same time,the method of experiment reform increased student’s practical ability and achieved objective of teaching.Practice shows that the teaching method is more conducive to increase learning efficiency and to develop student’s programming capability.
