Abstract

Web Technology is the development of the mechanism that allows two or more computer devices to communicate over a network. To understand such a complex system there is a need of experiential learning. Authors adopted an Experiential for teaching the web technology course. Teaching with a hands-on session where the teacher explains the concepts with demonstration and students simultaneously practice and also modify the fields to observe the change. After the end of chapter the students learning is verified by giving the structured enquiry category assignments and are evaluated. At the end of delivery of course that is one month before the term end the collective learning is verified through the course project. Two course projects are carried out by the students as a team of two. One is the intranet project, where student understands how to connect and work in a local area network and the other is internet project, where student learns how to host a website globally. In both the projects students used LINUX platform with LAMP as a framework and developed web apps using HTML5, CSS 3, JQuery, PHP and SQL. The experiential learning enhanced the student's domain knowledge of Linux architecture, computer networks, and web and database servers applying in real time scenarios. Finally, we conclude such practical/programming oriented courses should be designed as hands-on lab course to attain the best outcomes.
