Investigation Of Game-Based Learning Component In A Programming Subject

Higher dropout and even failure rates for programming subjects have been observed across the years. The problem could be due to the conventional teaching approach that emphasises teacher-centred learning. Such passive teaching method has hindered learners from interacting with the context and theref...

description Higher dropout and even failure rates for programming subjects have been observed across the years.
