Abstract

In this paper, the authors present a Teaching-Learning Methodology which combines Blended learning and Computer Supported Collaborative Learning (CSCL) in a Computer Architecture subject. For this purpose, we have created a tool called SIENA SOCIAL, which use a combination of conceptual maps and Adaptive tests, designed by including specific tools for making possible the on-line collaborative work. We have incorporated around 1500 questions for the Computer Architecture subject which have been carried out by means collaboration between teachers and students. Also, audiovisual resources and simulators tools have been included in the educational process.
