Virtual Learning Environments In Faculties Of Education In Spain: Changes On Student Attitude

This paper presents some results of a R+D project entitled “e-Learning system for Practical Training of University students in Education Faculties (ForELearn)”, developed in Spain by the Universidad de Granada and the Universidad Politécnica de Madrid and funded by the Spanish Ministry of Education. In a first phase, through the use of AulaWeb Learning Management System, a set of adaptations and improvements of this software application have been done for the design and development of an experimental course of Practicum supervision. Next, the implementation of this course by means of a group of face to face and online seminars provides experimental data for the analysis and discussion about the point of view of users (preservice teachers) that have tracked their practice supervision with AulaWeb.

Some framework ideas for software engineering education

This paper presents various ideas aimed at improving the conceptual framework for Software Engineering Education. They are centered on gradually seeing Software Engineering through a 3-p (problem-process-product), a 4-p (people (producars)-problem,process,product) and a 5-p (people (producers)-"problem, process, product, people (users)diagram. These diagrams include concepts such as the rate of change of a problem, the relational complexity of a problem, triphase processes with dominant phases, degrees of software evolution,levels of complexity (with the recognition of disorganized complexity), among others.
