Didactic strategies, University education, didactic resources, student profile, programmingAbstract
The growing demand for digital applications requires training new professionals with solid knowledge and skills for software development. This training usually begins during the first structured programming courses at a higher level. In this work, a systematic review of the literature was carried out in three phases (planning, execution, and reporting) to identify, in the last five years, which are the strategies and didactic resources most used in the university for learning structured programming. 43 sources were analyzed, 14 in Spanish and 29 in English, mostly articles indexed in Scopus, JCR and WoS, but also including conference articles, book chapters and doctoral thesis. It was possible to identify seven didactic strategies among which those oriented to problem solving and the use of some instructional design stand out; in terms of the multiple resources identified, the use of learning management systems and the support in flowcharts stand out.
