Development of a Multi-Device Data Structures Course Item Bank Practice System with Self-Regulated Learning Strategy on Bloom's Taxonomy of Educational Objectives

Abstract

With the rapid development of information technology, traditional paper-and-pencil testing is lacked for immediate analysis and feedback. Thus, it has been replaced by computerized item bank practice systems. Because of the popularity of wireless networks and multi-devices, developing an item bank practice system which can support on multi-device has become a new trend gradually. This makes learning become more convenient. In this paper, we classify items by Bloom's taxonomy of educational objectives, and found the weaknesses of learners in the practice in order to improve the weaknesses. At the same time, we use self-regulated learning strategy in this system, so that learners can set their learning goals. In this system, it provides self-monitoring, standard setting, evaluative judgment, self-appraisal, and affective self-reaction, so that learners can learn in the best environment. In the future, we will combine this system with data structures course and hope to improve learners’ learning motivation and effectiveness.
