游戏式路由算法教学初探

A Game Playing Teaching Method for Routing Protocols

"计算机网络"课程含有抽象性较强的路由协议的内容,本文精心构思、设计和实现路由游戏,将原理融入到游戏的各个环节,使学生在参与的过程中,主动探索和思考蕴含在协议背后的设计思想,从而达到知其所以然的目的。我们的教学实践表明,该方法简单易行,效果明显,能够方便的推广到工程类专业的网络类课程的教学实践中。

Computer Networks has many concepts,whose contents are very complex and update fast.This paper proposes a new teaching methed.In our method,teachers think,design,and play the routing game with students together.Because the underlying principles have been added into the game,when students play game,they can explore and get the behind concepts actively and have a good understanding of them.We have practiced this way and got some positive experiences.We argue that it is a efficent try in protocol teaching and can be copied to the network course teaching practices conveniently.
