Abstract
How to keep students interested in a programming course is not new to those who teach the subject. This work describes our experience in the use of Python with its Turtle Graphic Library in a game-oriented approach that seeks to increase the interest and motivation of students. We present the main assignments used in our course. Our experience has shown us that students get engaged and motivate themselves with the graphical component. We have found an improvement in students grades.
