A Practical Approach to Teach Web Programming Course

Abstract

Web programming is an interesting and important course, which commands innovative methods to reach the students in large. This paper describes an approach to effective teaching of this course in our department. The traditional method of teaching this course includes the use of black board and power point presentations. But to enable students to apply the learned concepts in real time projects, the usage of different constructs was demonstrated live in the classrooms using a computer projector. The highlight of the course was to make students in batches of 2 or 3 to develop a simple web portal and host it on internet. The whole process enhanced student learning, their confidence to take up live projects and fostered communication skills and human relationship. This indirectly led to the development of better student community in the department, hence the institute.
