  • Abstract
    The computer network engineering course, one of essential and popular courses to train the network engineer, requires students to master comprehensive theories on network engineering and experienced practice skills. In this paper, we propose the failure case study method for teaching the computer network engineering course. The applications of the failure case study method are presented with six examples both in the classroom and in the laboratory. Our teaching experiences for more than ten years show that the failure case study method is an instructive and effective teaching method for the computer network engineering course.
