Importancia del pensamiento computacional en la formación de ingenieros a partir de teorías y modelos de aprendizaje

Abstract

The target of this research was to propose, implement and bring to the classroom a model that would facilitate the learning of imperative programming in Systems Engineering and Computing based on the theory of meaningful learning (Dr. David Paul Ausubel), Discovery learning (Dr. Jemore Seymour Bruner) and the 4Q model of thinking preferences (Dr. William Herrmann). From the perspective of these three models, it was sought that, in this learning process, the meaning of programming would be simplified, spaces would be opened for the student to discover solutions based on their own logic, students would be outlined and they would be aware of their profile and, in general, computational thinking will be assimilated as a basis for decision making. The adopted method was quantitative with written evaluations and valued in the range of 1 to 5 and qualitative from observation, dialogue and interaction between students and the research teacher. The results show that, both quantitatively and ...
