Abstract

Data Structure Curriculum (DSC) has abstract and dynamic features and it is difficult for learners to gain a full comprehension. According to its abstract features, related algorithms cases should be visualized in order to help learners more easily learn. And according to its dynamic feature, Imagery Training can be introduced into the method of instruction. Resorting to the two modes and the developed demo system of algorithm in DSC, learners can be instructed to comprehend and memorize abstract knowledge better in imaginative ways.
