Miedema, Daphne (author), Taipalus, Toni (author), Aivaloglou, E.A. (author)Several educational studies have argued for the contextualization of assignments, i.e., for providing a context or a story instead of an abstract or symbolic problem statement. Such contextualization may have beneficial effects such as higher student engagement and lower dropout rates. In the domain of database education, textbooks and...conference paper 2023
