Face-to-face teaching involves both theoretical and laboratory lessons. Here, we present an online course, developed by an open source software, in order to support traditional face-to-face lessons in the Databases field. The courseware is based on learning objects designed to support different teaching needs derived not only from the Computer Science degree, but also from other university degrees that require database skills. In detail, the courseware is composed of both traditional theoretical lessons, about the Databases theory, and laboratory lessons, about the three most popular DBMSs for relational databases. There are also illustrated some preliminary statistical analyses that we have carried out on the fruition of our databases course from the students of the University of Bari.

Abstract
Face-to-face teaching involves both theoretical and laboratory lessons. Here, we present an online course, developed by an open source software, in order to support traditional face-to-face lessons in the Databases field. The courseware is based on learning objects designed to support different teaching needs derived not only from the Computer Science degree, but also from other university degrees that require database skills. In detail, the courseware is composed of both traditional theoretical lessons, about the Databases theory, and laboratory lessons, about the three most popular DBMSs for relational databases. There are also illustrated some preliminary statistical analyses that we have carried out on the fruition of our databases course from the students of the University of Bari.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
