The traditional approach to teaching data communications consists of lecturescovering theoretical information and mathematical basis, and of laboratory sessions where studentscan understand better the communication process and how to program a communications protocol.It is very crucial to keep up in classrooms with today's industry requirements for graduates in termsof both

Ingeneral, big data comes from interactivity, i.e., either a person clicking or scrolling on a webpageor sensors in either a home or chemical plant. In the same vein, combining interactivity withtextbooks has begun to create big data in the engineering classroom.Student-centered teaching techniques are commonly called active learning [3-8]. This type ofpedagogy focuses on students learning by doing in many cases. Despite the large body of evidencesupporting these best practices of teaching, adoption is not the norm.
