MINOS, Alejandro y SALES, Juan. Programación concurrente: una aproximación a las dificultades de su aprendizaje. Rev. iberoam. tecnol. educ. educ. tecnol. [online]. 2015, n.15, pp.7-13. ISSN 1851-0086.
The study of programming techniques is essential in undergraduate courses pf computer science, since programs are the building block for all software. At the same time, modern operating systems can only be understood with a previous understanding of concurrent programing, that is the way to have several programs running in parallel. This investigation worked with a population of college students of computer science. analizing the main difficulties encountered in relation to this programming technique. Based on the results observed in tests and assignements, we reached two main conclusions: 1) The use of a programming language known by the students is part of the success. 2) Work with theoretical examples, some of which are considered paradigmatic, is useful, and can help in the understanding on the subjet, but it is not enough to achieve the construction of viable programs and understanding concurrent programming as a technique.
