involvement in his or her academicwork, resulting in better retention of new knowledge and acquisition of desirable personal traits.Any such method that engages students in the learning process is labeled as: “active learning”method. In essence, active learning requires doing meaningful learning activities in groups underthe guidance of an informed and experienced teacher. As stated by Christensen et al (1991), “Toteach is to engage students in learning.” The main point is that engaging students in learning isprincipally the responsibility of the teacher, who becomes less an imparter of knowledge andmore a designer and a facilitator of learning experiences and opportunities. In other words, thereal challenge in college teaching today is not covering

(a) Some of them, even thoughthey completed the prerequisite calculus course, do not have a clear conceptual understanding ofcalculus, and (b) the majority of students have adequate knowledge of calculus concepts albeit inan abstract way: They have little or no training in how to apply this knowledge in physicsproblems.

Though the currentcourses are not as complex as the proposed Intrusion Detection System course, research showsthat the lab automation software would be an asset for such a use case. Our research indicatesthat a student could utilize the environment at the start of class without any setup effort required.The proposed setup would put four multipurpose operating systems and two virtual appliances into the hands of IDS students; providing a far richer learning experience, an experience we expectwould more closely resemble what would be found in a non-academic environment.Bibliography1.
