摘要
In this paper, we describe the development of an interactive learning environment that can be used to improve educational outcomes by engaging users during the learning process. The system adopts a problem solving-based pedagogical technique and allows users to learn about a subject area by utilizing a concept map-based knowledge model. We also discuss the role of such a system in the introductory computer science curriculum and describe a plan for using this system in the introductory programming course at our institution.
