Aims, Methods and Experiences: Dr. Nagy, Rezső Associate Professor

The document discusses the aims, methods, and experiences in teaching computer network knowledge. It notes that every computer is or will be connected to a network, so every student needs network knowledge. However, teaching networks presents challenges because technical terms are inconsistently used between firms and over time, and translations of terms are imperfect. The document outlines methods used such as lectures, simulations, labs, and e-learning materials. It also discusses difficulties in keeping curricula and exams up to date due to the fast changes in network technologies and terms.

Problems in Teaching Computer


Network Knowledges
Partly similar to other areas of
computer technology
Technical terms are not uniformly used
Computer technology is too young
Different firms use different terms

Terms change from time to time


A firm collects some old and some new ideas
and creates a product family using a common
name

Administrative difficulties
Curricula change too often
At the moment we have students studying
by curricula K, B and C as well.
In curriculum C the order of network-related
subjects is different for full-time and parttime students

Exception: Computer Networks special


professional training program
We did not change the curriculum,
concentrated on the contents development

Laboratory practices or real devices
E-learning materials
First of all for individual studying

Creating questions for tests


Very difficult
Cisco Academy questions are excellent,
but not perfect
Sometimes answers are unambigous only
for those who read the material
Hungarian translations are not always
perfect
It can be easier to take the exam in English
