Aprajita Singh, Chinmay Chavan, Suraj Chourasiya . Learning C++ using Web: Analyzing Student Preferences. International Conference on Advances in Information Technology and Management. ICAIM2016, 2 (July 2016), 11-13.
C++ is a deeply practical language; it continues to exist to solve practical engineering problems. An effort to teach C++ as the introductory language for fresh programmer's majors has always been, and continues to be perplexing. C++ is probably the least beginner-friendly among all the other mainstream programming languages, because it is a complex language as it takes a long time to develop a good mental model of C++. We are investigating the ways and means used or preferred by students of Master in Computer Application course to learn C++ as a language . The research paper analyses, which technique is used by the students for better understanding of the language, based on a survey conducted to provide evidence. Based on this survey we will come to know the best practices that are used by students for understanding concepts in C++. This paper also investigates whether the students use the web to study and how important it is for them to use internet based content for learning the subject well.
