Using Achievement-Based Teaching Interventions in Network Security Course

This paper proposes an achievement-based educational framework for teaching the network security course. We designed around a series of counter-activities of experiment, in which the students are divided into several groups, and their task is to attack and anti-attack each other, the winner will have a high score and a feeling of achievement. In contrast to just e-learning, the novel achievement-based teaching interventions motivates the learnerspsila interest and passion, enables the students to participate actively in the learning process and collaborate in groups and so achieve the expected learning objectives, which can be proved by the positive student feedback and a post-test comparison with the same academic year.
