Summary: | 碩士 === 中原大學 === 資訊工程研究所 === 95 === For most people, it would spend a lot of time to understand something which was touched first time. If someone provided correlative documentation or comment in advance, it would be understood by people in shorter time. However, we discovered that it is very difficult for students to write documents or comments in code voluntarily only by the tranditional method “the instructor teach, and the students listen”.
Comments in code is diffirence from which instructor teach in course. It has no standard model to be refered. It could not also be teach by “one command, one action”. The construction and the model of comment are all determined by programmers subjectively.
To help novice programmer to develop the habit of writing comment in code, we ask the students who take an elective the computer science curriculum to do some exercise by using our networked computer-assisted learning system (called “CAL”) when they are at home. In last year, we provided a method to help the students to develope the habit of writing comment is code, but they only develope the habit of writing prolog comment in code. Now, in this year, we amend and improve this method. We hope the students to develope not only the habit of writing prolog comment in code but also the habit of writing segment comment in code.
The experimental group consists of the novices. They are freshmen who took as an elective the computer science curriculum in Chung Yuan Christian University. There were 119 of them. We would inspect the codes of the two larger project we gave. Then we checked that if they develope the habit of writing prolog and segment comment in code.
