    Os trabalhos de investigação, através de seus métodos científicos, proporcionam valiosos contributos para o avanço do conhecimento. Nesse contexto, a revisão sistemática da literatura ocupa um lugar de capítal importância no processo científico identificando, avaliando e recompilando dados. O propósito da presente investigação é mostrar até que ponto o estado actual do conhecimento sobre o ensino e a aprendizagem da programação abrange o âmbito do ensino superior não presencial. Para tal, realizou-se uma revisão sistemática da produção científica, caracterizando e sintetizando o state-of-the-art do conhecimento, abordando as duas grandes modalidades de educação: presencial e não presencial e analisando o corpus de literatura existente actualmente, dando prioridade à mais recente.Research, through its scientific methods, provides valuable contributions for the advancement of knowledge. In this context, the systematic literature review occupies a place of primary importance in the scientific process by identifying, assessing and gathering data. The aim of this research is to determine to which extent current knowneldge on the teaching and learning of the programming encompasses distance education. Thus, a systematic literature review was conducted, characterizing and synthesizing the state-of-the-art of the knowledge, distinguishing two major types of education: face-to-face and distance learning, and analyzing the current corpus of literature, giving priority to the most recent

    Programming is a major subject in Computer Science (CS) departments. However, students often face difficulties on the basic programming courses due to several factors that cause these difficulties. Maybe the most important reason is the lack of problem solving abilities that many students show. This paper describes the web-based environment Pex4Fun from Microsoft Research for teaching computer science. Pex4Fun can be used to teach and learn computer programming at many levels, from high school all the way through graduate courses. Pex4Fun was experimentally used for learning Visual Basic with college students, the results of which are presented in this paper
