Abstract

In this work we will expose some proposals directed to the development of horizontal skills in the first year courses of Mathematics for Computer Science, with the purpose of stimulating the curiosity and the interest of the students by means of collaborative work. Our experience is based on the planning of multidisciplinary activities following projects based learning (PBL) pedagogies, included in the joint educational planning of the mathematics courses in first year of Computer Science.

Learning from achievement: scaffolding student projects in software engineering

It has become almost a truism that students learn more from working on projects than from lectures. This is reflected in pedagogical approaches such as Problem-based Learning, Project-based Learning (PBL) and Work-based Learning. A problem in PBL, ...
