REA-AED: Open Educational Resource for the Teaching of Algorithms and Data Structures

Teaching of algorithms and data structures is present in the curriculum of the most computer courses, having great influence on the performance of students in some subsequent disciplines, as well as student training. However, many students' present difficulties in learning of the subject due to the abstraction ability and logical reasoning often have not developed. This research aims at presenting an open educational resource to assist students in learning algorithms and data structures. After applying the case study, the main results showed that the tool proposed is a good alternative to be used in the classroom contributing to learning the theme1.
