Artificial Intelligence (AI) is becoming more and more popular as time
passes, allowing to perform tasks that were difficult to do in the past. From
predictions to customization, AI is being used in many areas, not being
educational environments outside this situation. AI is being used in
educational settings to customize contents or to provide personalized feedback
to the students, among others. In this scenario, AI in programming teaching is
something that still has to be explored, since in this area we usually find
assessment tools that allow grading the students work, but we can not find many
tools aimed towards providing feedback to the students in the process of
creating their program. In this work we present an AI based intelligent tutor
that answers students programming questions. The tool has been tested by
university students at the URJC along a whole course. Even if the tool is still
in its preliminary phase, it helped the students with their questions,
providing accurate answers and examples. The students were able to use the
intelligent tutor easily and they thought that it could be a useful tool to use
in other courses.

本研究提出了基于人工智能的编程教学智能助教，它可以回答学生的编程问题并提供准确的答案和示例，受测试的大学生认为这个工具可以成为其他课程中有用的工具。
