Uso del vídeo como recurso educativo no formal en la docencia universitaria en ingeniería informática = Use of video as a non-formal educational resource in higher education teaching in computer engineering

摘要

The broad curricular program of the subjects, in the current degree programs, and the associated activities suppose a temporary limitation for the teacher at the time of teaching more accurately the contents of technical subjects in degrees of engineering, which also require the resolution of problems and the dedication of laboratory hours focused on the realization of practices. For the specific case of first year subjects, it is an additional challenge to adapt the student that comes from middle school, and needs more guidance from the teacher. This experience exposes a teaching practice whose main objective has been to act in real time, on the needs of the students, who have heterogeneous knowledge, at the same time as improving the academic results of the subject, which demands some basic computational thinking skills of those that students lack. To achieve this goal, the use of video has been chosen as a reinforcement to the teaching practice, through a non-formal language and means, such as the YouTube platform. The results of the subject and in particular the use of the videos have shown an acceptance for the students who used them throughout the course and a remarkable learning perception, in addition to obtaining satisfactory results in the number of students who passed the subject.
