Most of the soft branch courses are imaginary, that takes a lot of time to understand the concepts and visualize them. In Computer Science, Design and Analysis of algorithm course is one of them where we design the algorithmic solution to a real-time problem and analyze the complexity of the algorithm. In this paper we have shown the different learning tools to understand nature, working and systematic implementation of the problem by visualizing it, also we have discussed suitable strategies to design and implement same and compared the complexity of algorithms. Further, we have compared the impact of an activity on students by comparing assessment strategies ISE-I and ISE-II, also by taking feedback from students before and after conduction of activity.

Abstract


Most of the soft branch courses are imaginary, that takes a lot of time to understand the concepts and visualize them. In Computer Science, Design and Analysis of algorithm course is one of them where we design the algorithmic solution to a real-time problem and analyze the complexity of the algorithm. In this paper we have shown the different learning tools to understand nature, working and systematic implementation of the problem by visualizing it, also we have discussed suitable strategies to design and implement same and compared the complexity of algorithms. Further, we have compared the impact of an activity on students by comparing assessment strategies ISE-I and ISE-II, also by taking feedback from students before and after conduction of activity.
