Objective:

Implementing pedagogical strategies such as the Flipped Classroom (FC) and Collaborative Learning (CL) have contributed to the teaching of computer programming. In this sense, this paper allows us to identify the current state-of-the-art techniques based on active and collaborative learning, and how they have supported programming learning, and the contributions that Artificial Intelligence (AI) has generated in this process.

Methodology:

Supported by the Kitchenham process, a systematic review was developed, finding the research questions, selecting information sources, the information analysis and processing. Different data sources and selection criteria were used to find research articles and conferences published between 2013 and 2020.

Results:

FC and CL current state was identified, emphasizing how these strategies support the teaching process of programming with educational methods and software tools. In addition, it was identified how Artificial Intelligence supports learning programming through different applications and computational techniques that integrate FC and CL.

Conclusions:

The novel tools and strategies based on AI have contributed to management and visualization. The teacher can make timely decisions in the training process and provide feedback on the learning environments' activities. Since the appearance of virtual tools, the implementation of Artificial Intelligence has become a basic need for virtual education, enhancing understanding and understanding the specific needs of the student.
