Correlation Between Students' Background and the Knowledge on Conceptual Database Modelling

  • 1. Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, University of Maribor

Description

Students taking a Databases Course have different pre-knowledge of Conceptual Database Modelling. At the beginning of the course, they were asked to self-evaluate their knowledge of database design concepts. We have compared the results of self-evaluation of students with Technical and General High School education, as well as the results they achieved at the final exam. All together 132 students have collaborated in both parts of the survey. The results show that the students with a technical background have a better pre-knowledge of database design constructs, but, on the other hand, received lower results in the exam where the knowledge on Database Modelling was tested.
