Interactive Telegram Bot as a Support Tool for Teaching in Higher Education

In this paper, we present an interactive Telegram bot designed as a support tool for the Artificial Intelligence course, developed with the intention of providing students with an innovative and accessible mechanism to complement traditional learning. This bot is capable of interpreting various commands that can be sent through Telegram, and implements several functionalities: from tips and guides for the development of practical exercises to instant feedback methods that allow students to assess their performance in the various tasks to be carried out. Although the work focuses on the Artificial Intelligence course, we discuss the potential of this tool to be extended to a wide majority of computer science subjects. This proposal aims to improve the learning experience, establishing a flexible and effective educational paradigm for various university teaching disciplines in computer science. The software used is open source and available on GitHub.
