Abstract

In this paper, we describe an item of "intelligent"

educational software that is intended to help students

taking university computer science courses to understand

the fundamentals of transaction scheduling. The

software, implemented in PROLOG, empowers students

to construct their own learning environment and

is able to provide tailored forms of feedback to different

types of learner. We describe the development and

evaluation of the software, and we present details of

the analysis of the results of our investigation into the

effectiveness of the software as a teaching and learning

tool. Our results suggest that our learning tool

provides students with a different and valuable type of

learning experience, which traditional methods do not

provide.
