B-Learning in the Teaching-Learning of Boolean Function Simplification

Abstract

This paper presents the results obtained after employing B-Learning to reinforce the teaching-learning of the Simplification of Boolean Functions. The experience, which was carried out with higher education students, reflects the positive influence that the use of technological instruments may have during learning activities if combined with classroom education. This was verified by means of a formal experiment, during which the results obtained by two groups of students were compared. The students in the experimental group, who used the “Boolean Soft” software tool to reinforce the learning of the Simplification of Boolean Functions, made better progress when compared to the students in the control group who did not use it.
