| dc.description.abstract | Learners face difficulties while studying the Database management system course. Especially in understanding the practical part of the course which consist of understanding the relational SQL queries. This is one of the main reasons for learner to lack in gaining the practical skills. Scaffolding (support) can be provided to the learners in order to enhance their learning ability while they learn how to work with the relational SQL queries. This guidance provided to learners in the forms like curriculum, pedagogy and tool can enhance their mental model. Whereas as the learner make the transition from novice to expert stage then the support provided to the learner is faded away. With a rapid evolvement in the mobile phone technology, there is an ever growing market of the mobile phone users. In this dissertation, we proposed a scaffolding framework to cater with the difficulties of learners of the relational SQL. Based on the proposed framework a scaffolded environment called ‘MobiSQL' is proposed for facilitating learning on the mobile phone. Further, the proposed environment is evaluated by understanding the impact of mobile phone on the learners. Whereas the evaluation on the environment is conducted based on the parameters; number of errors, task success and time taken by the learners. The initial evaluation showed an overall positive response from the learners based on working with the scaffolded environment as compared to the non-scaffolded. Learners showed significant better result while working with the ‘MobiSQL' in number of errors, task success while completing the tasks. There was also significant difference with respect to the time while completing the task. Whereas there was not much difference in the time taken by the learner while attempting the tasks in scaffolded and non-scaffolded environment. | en_US |
