Flipped Classroom and Adaptive Learning for Data Structures Computer Science Course

Abstract

This is an upper division undergraduate required course. This course traditionally caps 35 students per section during each term, where approximately 6 of the students receive grades of C or below or withdraw, and the DFW rate is usually higher than 10%. This project is to adopt the pedagogical strategies for course redesign: <em>Flipped Classroom</em> and <em>Adaptive Learning</em>. By flipping the classroom, providing supplemental instruction, and organizing team-based learning, we expect that students will achieve fundamental programming skills and improve problem solving abilities, which is essential for them to succeed in their future career.
