resources. Unlike other subjects of the traditional curriculum, there is no unified curriculum for computer education. However, some common trends may be found which may constitute the backbone of a computer education curriculum. Needles to say that the components that curriculum should be carefully crafted to suit grade levels and students abilities. Another striking observation was that only about 10% of the teachers in the computer-using schools said they are able to use computers. This percentage is expected to be even lower in the non- computer-using schools. One can conclude that it could be a hopeless case to try to introduce all aspects of computer education without massive teacher training both

focus our work and guide the research. The model of adaptive expertise hasbeen presented as a way of thinking about how to prepare learners to flexibly respond to newlearning situations, which is precisely what students are expected to do in the context ofdeveloping design solutions. We focus on “computational adaptive expertise,” which weabbreviate CADEX, since a major portion of an engineering curriculum focuses on developinganalytical and computational knowledge. Yet, students often struggle with applying ortransferring computational knowledge in the context of design. The current paper presents anoverview of adaptive expertise and relates this concept specifically to engineering designeducation. In addition, the paper presents an overview

But mostly theseuniversities offer their data mining course as a graduate course. Therefore, the students whograduate from the universities like our university with no graduate computer science programwill not have the opportunity to get Data Mining knowledge.To improve our Database Engineering curriculum, we have decided to add a new Data Miningcourse to this curriculum.
