Abstract

El diseño y administración de intervenciones metodológicas es una forma posible de abordar las tasas de deserción y reprobación en los cursos de introducción a la programación de pregrado (CS1). Sin embargo, para implementar tales estrategias, se requiere identificar cómo se organizan y ofrecen los cursos CS1 a los estudiantes. En este trabajo, analizamos 225 silabus de cursos CS1 distribuidos en 95 universidades públicas brasileñas. Recopilamos estos silabus de los programas de pregrado brasileños con enfoque en aspectos de Ciencias de la Computación. Reportamos información de contexto sobre los temas más cubiertos, los nombres de cursos CS1 más comunes, cuándo toman el curso los estudiantes universitarios, el total de horas de clase y los paradigmas de programación y los lenguajes que se enseñan. Los resultados indican que el escenario brasileño tiene características propias que difieren de las presentadas en trabajos relacionados realizados en otros países o regiones del mundo. En Brasil, identificamos que el 90% de los cursos CS1 analizados enseña el paradigma procedimental, con C como el lenguaje de programación más común (53% del total). Estos resultados difieren de los realizados en otros países, donde Java y orientación a objetos son los lenguajes y paradigmas más comunes que se enseñan en los cursos CS1. Creemos que nuestros resultados pueden ser utilizados para: (1) proporcionar una actualización a los interesados en el escenario brasileño de cursos CS1; (2) apoyar futuras intervenciones en la enseñanza y el aprendizaje de CS1; y (3) apoyar a la comunidad brasileña en el desarrollo de futuros silabus de CS1.
