This research aims to validate the Achievement Motivation Inventory with a sample of Portuguese and Brazilian students who learn programming computer using 3D tools. The original Scale is in English ...was translated to Portugal and Brazilian Portuguese, and after retranslated to English, by three languages speakers. The final version was applied to our sample: 204 students, 102 Brazilians and 102 Portuguese. To the validation process, we determined three indexes: (i) the Sensibility of each item of the Scale, (ii) the Factorial Validity using Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) with Varimax Rotation, (iii) and the Cronbach Alpha. The results can be considered positive. The items presented a good or very good Sensibility; the EFA suggests that the factor structure proposed by the theoretical model was not confirmed in our sample; Cronbach's Alphas can be considered good.

O objetivo deste trabalho foi validar uma Escala de Motivacao de Realizacao, como primeira aplicacao a estudantes portugueses e brasileiros, que aprendem programacao informatica em 3D. A escala original em lingua inglesa foi traduzida para portugues de Portugal e Brasil, retrovertida para ingles, por falantes das tres linguas, ate chegar a versao aplicada a nossa amostra, composta por 204 estudantes, 102 brasileiros e 102 portugueses. Determinamos tres indices: (i) A Sensibilidade dos itens, (ii) A Validade Fatorial recorrendo a Analise Fatorial Exploratoria (AFE) com Rotacao Varimax, (iii) e o Alfa de Cronbach. Os resultados podem ser considerados positivos. Os itens revelaram boa ou muito boa sensibilidade; a AFE sugere que a estrutura fatorial proposta pelo modelo teorico nao se confirmou na nossa amostra; os Alfas de Cronbach podem ser considerados bons. Palavras-chave: Analise Fatorial; Escala de Motivacao de Realizacao; Programacao Computacional; Python para CAD; Validacao de uma Escala
Software engineering is a systematic approach that allows traceability of programming-oriented projects in the multiple paradigms that can be written, thus allowing the orderly planning of ...information flows and algorithms to reach the desired result through of the implementation of a robust and systematic methodology. On the other hand, the Indoor trend is a technological concept that has evolved with the entry of the 21st century, with the aim of promoting urban, peri-urban and rural agriculture. This concept creates agriculture anywhere from a department to a greenhouse. The present work presents the results of a research in software engineering referred to the design of a mini-PFAL, technified with multiple layers of software for the control of growth parameters in experimental lettuce crops, such as light intensity, temperature, humidity, light spectrum frequency, irrigation control, etc. The design strategies for the creation of the software architecture at its different levels are described, applying the software design methodology. The structure of the design process is ordered from the requirements analysis to the interface design, with them the final product reported is a PFAL IoT system that is interconnected via Bluetooth and WiFi with the SmartPhone, in turn via USB port to a GUI Visual Studio application, having a WareHouse data that administrates the information of the variables in a local database which manages the information on a SharePoint page that in turn, links with Access, having a Dashboard to directly control crop growth remotely, thus having an intelligent PFAL system for growing vegetable crops in vertical format.
This update of the book Experimentation in Software Engineering introduces current trends of experimental evaluation in software engineering. Offers guidelines for evaluating methods, techniques and ...tools in software engineering focused on steps and processes.
This concise introduction is ideal for readers familiar with programming and basic mathematical language. It uses pictures, words and high-level pseudocode to explain algorithms and presents ...efficient implementations using real programming languages.
This open access book constitutes the proceedings of the 24th International Conference on Fundamental Approaches to Software Engineering, FASE 2021, which took place during March 27–April 1, 2021, ...and was held as part of the Joint Conferences on Theory and Practice of Software, ETAPS 2021. The conference was planned to take place in Luxembourg but changed to an online format due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The 16 full papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 52 submissions. The book also contains 4 Test-Comp contributions.

INTUITEL is a research project that was co-financed by the European Commission with the aim to advance state-of-the-art e-learning systems via addition of guidance and feedback for learners. Through ...a combination of pedagogical knowledge, measured learning progress and a broad range of environmental and background data, INTUITEL systems will provide guidance towards an optimal learning pathway. This allows INTUITEL-enabled learning management systems to offer learners automated, personalised learning support so far only provided by human tutors INTUITEL is - in the first place - a design pattern for the creation of adaptive e-learning systems. It focuses on the reusability of existing learning material and especially the annotation with semantic meta data. INTUITEL introduces a novel approach that describes learning material as well as didactic and pedagogical meta knowledge by the use of ontologies. Learning recommendations are inferred from these ontologies during runtime. This way INTUITEL solves a common problem in the field of adaptive systems: it is not restricted to a certain field. Any content from any domain can be annotated. The INTUITEL research team also developed a prototype system. Both the theoretical foundations and how to implement your own INTUITEL system are discussed in this book.
