The high level of abstraction necessary to teach
data structures
and
algorithmic schemes
has been more than a hindrance to students. In order to make a proper approach to this issue, we have developed and implemented during the last years, at the Computer Science Department of the Complutense University of Madrid, an innovative
intelligent tutoring system
for the interactive learning of data structures according to the new guidelines of the
European Higher Education Area
. In this paper, we present the main contributions to the design of this intelligent tutoring system. In the first place, we describe the tool called
Vedya
for the visualization of data structures and algorithmic schemes. In the second place, the
Maude
system to execute the algebraic specifications of abstract data types using the
Eclipse
system, by which it is possible to study from the more abstract level of a software specification up to its specific implementation in
Java
, thereby allowing the students a self-learning process. Finally, we describe the
Vedya Professor
module, designed to allow teachers to monitor the whole educational process of the students.
