Use of b-learning to increase the performance of computer systems engineering students at the Instituto Tecnológico Superior de Guasave

Abstract

In this XXI century, it can be observed that programming is not an easy task to learn for higher level students, therefore, there are high failure rates. Because of this, it is necessary to have different methods of teaching and learning algorithmic logic and programming, in addition, it is of utmost importance to implement new strategies that allow to obtain new results, for example, using digital platforms that conceive more interactive classes, complementing it with face-to-face classes. The purpose of this study was to increase the performance of computer systems engineering students of the Instituto Tecnológico Superior de Guasave, in the specialty of software development, through the use of a strategy based on the combination of the Moodle platform, the pseint software for algorithms, the dev c++ software to make programs and the normal face-to-face classes, as a whole b-learning. Using qualitative methodology, the action research method, survey techniques, questionnaire and observation to support the results, which were significant in increasing the performance of students from 0% to at least 70% in their achievement, contrasting the results obtained in the initial survey, with respect to the final interview and the information gathered in the observations recorded in the field diary.
