Active Learning in an Upper Division Computer Networks Course

Presented at Computing and Information Technology Division (CIT) Technical Session 1

Computer Networks is an important course in most undergraduate curricula in computing disciplines. In most curricula, it is the only course on the topic. It is important that students get a conceptual understanding and retain the materials from this course. It has been demonstrated that active learning can have a positive impact on academic performance and success. This paper presents the author's experience in designing and implementing active learning in an upper-division computer networks course.
