This exploratory case study addressed the problems associated with the cost and storage requirements of large amounts of computer network hardware needed to teach real world computer networking problem-solving skills in the classroom by examining the use of computer Microworlds to teach and assess computer network problem-solving skills. The study included the development of computer Microworld software to both foster and assess the development of computer networking problem-solving skills in community college students. Subsequently, teachers and students in seven classes of advanced computer networking students at Northern Virginia Community College were exposed to this Microworld software to help them to learn computer networking problem-solving skills. Two of the classes involved also made use of the Microworld technology to assess the attending students' problem-solving abilities.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a This exploratory case study addressed the problems associated with the cost and storage requirements of large amounts of computer network hardware needed to teach real world computer networking problem-solving skills in the classroom by examining the use of computer Microworlds to teach and assess computer network problem-solving skills. The study included the development of computer Microworld software to both foster and assess the development of computer networking problem-solving skills in community college students. Subsequently, teachers and students in seven classes of advanced computer networking students at Northern Virginia Community College were exposed to this Microworld software to help them to learn computer networking problem-solving skills. Two of the classes involved also made use of the Microworld technology to assess the attending students' problem-solving abilities.
520 $a Teachers and students who were exposed to the Microworld software were later surveyed to evaluate their perceptions of the software's effectiveness for teaching and assessing computer networking problem-solving skills. These surveys' results were then compared to similar surveys completed by teachers and students in two additional advanced networking classes that had not been exposed to any Microworld technology.
520 $a The results showed that both students and teachers who used the Microworld learning environment had a stronger belief in this technology's usefulness for developing and assessing computer networking problem-solving skills than those who had only been exposed to traditional teaching environments. This difference was calculated to be significant at the 95% confidence level. Similarly, the subjects who had used the Microworld technology for classroom assessment also expressed a stronger belief that they had been fairly assessed by this technology compared to how the students who had been assessed by more traditional means felt about their methods of assessment. This difference was also calculated as being significant at the 95% confidence level.
