Abstract

Given the diversity of scientific disciplines that encompasses robotics of university degree, its teaching entails a particular effort for teachers and students. This can cause deficiencies in the acquisition of the fundamentals that can lead to a disassociation between theory and practice. The involvement of the student in the development of a practical application where the fundamentals are a necessary tool allows being a motivating instrument. For this purpose, in this paper is introduced the methodology based on challenges, analysing the impact on the results as well as the acceptance and perception received by the students. The results of the study show an improvement in the deep involvement of students, both in theoretical concepts, as in their practical application, as well as greater motivation to focus the subject and keep attendance until the end.
