Description
Summary:碩士 === 淡江大學 === 資訊管理學系碩士班 === 98 === The virtual networking security laboratory expanded another way for information communication during virtualization technique has gradually getting mature. In such a virtual lab environment, students can make connections to the simulation environment remote from their schools, acquiring hands-on operations of networking equipment as the use of physical device and get practices and opportunities to accumulate positive learning experience. The purpose of this research was to examine the learning effect of virtual networking security laboratory adopting in computer networking practical course. The subjects were 87 third grade students in 2 classes from the Department of Information Management in Tamkang University, is divided into experimental and control groups. An experiment with nonequivalent pretest-posttest design was conducted. The students of control group are in the traditional classroom environment to learn; the students of experimental group are in a virtual environment for getting hands-on learning. During a period of seven weeks, analyzing the results of the experimental group and control group and investigate the learning satisfaction of experimental group. Thus we expect to provide some suggestions for content design and modifications of the virtual environment system. The results show that integration of virtual networking security laboratory in the teaching and learning environment are significantly superior to the adoption of traditional learning. Generally speaking, as the learning satisfaction aspect, we found out the overall satisfaction of experimental group are related with their tutors, contents of curriculum, system environment, and interpersonal relationships. According to statistical analysis shows that learners give more positive feedback to tutors, contents of curriculum, system environment and interpersonal relationships.
