Abstract:
The growth in student enrollment in the engineering programs, low student motivation and poor passing rates in first years' students in a Computer Science undergraduate program have demanded the incorporation of active learning strategies into the classroom in order to improve problem solving skills. This article describes a proposal and preliminary results of incorporating technology-based teaching strategies. The Analysis-Design-Programming-Testing (ADPT) teaching strategy was applied in the classroom, combined with a Flipped Classroom (FC) methodology. Preliminary results show clear benefits related to the availability of support media resources, increased time dedicated to solving problems in the classroom, and the creation of a collaborative and challenging classroom environment.
