Criação e aplicação de ferramenta para auxiliar no ensino de algoritmos e programação de computadores
This addresses the challenge of teaching programming to students in a specific university course, but it is incremental as it adapts existing educational methods to a new tool.
The authors developed a web-based teaching tool for an algorithms and programming course, combining textbook knowledge with video lessons and exercises, and reported positive preliminary results with student approval and perceived potential for improved performance.
Knowledge about programming is part of the knowledge matrix that will be required of the professionals of the future. Based on this, this work aims to report the development of a teaching tool developed during the monitoring program of the Algorithm and Computer Programming discipline of the University of Fortaleza. The tool combines the knowledge acquired in the books, with a language closer to the students, using video lessons and exercises proposed, with all the content available on the internet. The preliminary results were positive, with the students approving this new approach and believing that it could contribute to a better performance in the discipline.
