Abstract
Today’s world circumstances demand new professional training strategies that improve teaching-learning practices, taking into account the characteristics of the new generation. The aim of this work is to propose a didactic strategy for software engineering courses, based on reverse engineering and problembased learning (PBL). With the participation of 86 students and 3 teachers, we apply the action research methodology using participant observation, interviews, and student work repositories. The didactic strategy is structured in a set of principles, guidelines, class activities, and recommendations. The results of the study allowed us to conclude that this didactic strategy helped to stimulate the student’s motivation and contributed to the achievement of the learning outcomes because they developed technical, cognitive, and behavioral skills.
