Use of Techno-Pedagogical Tools to Incorporate Remote Collaboration in a Data Structure Course

Abstract

Traditionally, teaching-learning activities in typical schools in most of the states in the Mexican Republic have been face-to-face interactions between students and learning facilitators, but obviously, in 2020, everything changed, so that educational videoconferencing will gain ground in the academic world. Participation in solving individual and / or group problems was adapted to a remote scheme, stimulating the use of different skills in students to face the new normal, as is the case in the development of remote programming projects for the purpose of training novice programmers to solve problems collaboratively, going through the entire global software development process. To do so, it is necessary to incorporate skills that allow them to adapt this work philosophy, which is why in this work the use of competencies that allows to detonate social and cognitive aspects in the development of software in small teams was evaluated, as well as the frequency of use. It is also important to determine if the gender has any influence on the adoption of a certain trait. For this, groups of students were trained by developing computational problems in the field of data structure.
