Data Analysis

Instructors of the same course (at CCSF)

Data Sharing Methods

None

Data SummaryThe median scores on the assignments were all above 85% The median score on the coding sections of the final exam was 68% and on the multiple choice questions was 88%.
Analysis SummaryAssignments are scored looking for analysis of the logic needed to complete the tasks and for specific techniques. This included writing test routines and creating sample test data for most assignments. I expect students to get scores 90% or above for assignment points.

For the written exams, which are done as paper and pencil exams, the focus is more on logic than on specifics of syntax and I expect students to get a score of at least 70% on this part of the exam.
Next Steps PlannedI plan to increase the use of creation of requiring test data and test plans for coding assignments and to promote ways for students to share test data and plans.

Additional support is needed for students who are taking this course with a background in a different dbms.

Changes

More DetailsEnsure that all assignment include major testing plans when appropriate.

Include required online forums as part of the assignment where student post partial test plans and justifications for those plans.

Tighten up the allowed test routine patterns.

Provide more feedback to students re test plans.
