Abstract

Recently, the need for learning programs is increased, especially after the fast propagation of computers in different areas and the essential use of computer as an assistant in learning process due to simplicity of this method of learning, and it is not restricted with time for the user. In this research, a system including Enumeration and Interactive learning with user has been adopted for the visual programming language Visual FoxPro, where this language is a strong development programming language in Database that combines between features of visual development languages and Object Oriented Programming in addition to Database. Two learning methods are used in this research: Enumeration  learning where the user plays a video file containing the lecture while the user is listening, and the Interactive learning which instructs the user to build the application by himself by  sound and pictures step-by-step until the application is finished. The lectures  are divided into six branches and each branch contains from 1 to 3 lectures with interactive lectures included. In addition, a set of tests is added to the system to know how the user benefits from the system.   The proposed system has been applied on a sample of 74 students from second stage in Database laboratory of computer science department and it gave excellent results in learning according to a questionnaire form that distributed to the students after using the system.
