A Literature Review on Tools for Learning Data Structures
Shirin Patel · 2014
Data structures are a conceptually demanding topic which confronts many Computer Science students early in their course. The topic has a strong conceptual basis and often proves difficult for many to grasp. A number of previous studies have examined that the use of interaction and visualization within the systems can motivate a student to engage in the learning process. This literature review investigates the effectiveness of these systems that were and are being used today for teaching and learning of data structures to novice Computer Science students. It also explores the different techniques that are used to develop the intelligent tutoring systems and concludes on presenting which techniques are most effective.
