Applying and Evaluating Engagement and Application Based Learning and Education (ENABLE) – A Student Centered Learning Pedagogy for the course Database Management System
Ahmedabad University has evolved a framework “ENABLE”. Through ENABLE, concepts are taught from the context of real world. Industry projects are assigned to groups of students where they get engaged in real scenarios. Theoretical concepts are introduced as and when needed during the project implementation. Faculty serve as facilitators rather than teachers. Grasping and understanding complex concepts become much easier through ENABLE. Students are evaluated continuously through quizzes, presentations, class participation, assignments, peer feedback, etc. In this paper, the detailed implementation of ENABLE for the course Database Management System has been described.
