Abstract:
The subject of “Fundamentals of Programming” is the one that has the highest index of failure within the block of subjects of the first semester in several engineering careers at the Technological Institute of Morelia, Mexico, what causes a high percentage in the abandonment of studies. In this paper, a computer tool that students can use to practice what is learned in the classroom wherever they are, at their own pace, individually or in a team, is presented. This software, which was carried out using Blended Learning, led to an improvement in the learning of programming. The results show an increase in the levels of motivation and in the students' learning (with an increase in their final grade), and a reduction in the dropout rate.
