In “The Future of Jobs Report 2020”, the world economic forum (WEF) built a list often skills that will be most required in jobs by 2025, one of them being “technology design andprogramming”. In response to the above, in recent years, many projects have been launched toincrease programming knowledge for different audiences and in different parts of the world. Oneof these projects was developed through a collaboration between a university in Colombia and

technologicaladvancements, such as animations and embedded questions, in an attempt to increase interactivityand engagement [14]. With the slow evolution and introduction of interactive texts hosted on web-based platforms, there have been relatively few studies on the efficacy of such texts on studentengagement, satisfaction, and performance. Of the few studies which exist, even fewer have beenfocused on engineering-based texts.O'Bannon et al. [15] studied student achievement when an interactive, digital textbook was usedin place of traditional lectures for specific content in a technology-oriented course. It is noted theirplatform was based on Apple’s iBook Author, which allowed for the incorporation of various typesof multimedia, as well as immediate-feedback
