  • In the last few years, undergraduate university courses with a practical orientation, such as programming, have had a high drop-out rate and low number of students who pass the course. One important issue of these courses is that in order to learn new content, previous skills must be consolidated. Therefore, a progressive and continuous feedback is essential to increase the motivation of the students. In this paper, we present an experience that obtains this feedback by means of the on-line educational platform. The impact of this experience is evaluated in a group of students.
