Abstract :
This paper presents a project to facilitate the learning process in subjects related to engineering that involves solving practical problems. The created tool is aimed to provide an automatic problem generation support for student working in a concrete area. Although it was initially designed for the field of Computer Architecture, the aim is to provide the same support that general problem books in any domain, but adding the automatic generation of problems. Additionally, students are provided with a reasoned solution at different steps for a better understanding of the tackled concepts. The tool provides functionalities to generate problems and reasoned solutions. These ones are suitable in the learning phase by students as well as assessment tools by professors.
