Abstract

Command line learning and Bash usage are fundamental skills in systems administration, software development, and data science environments. However, their teaching has been neglected in many curricula, despite its relevance in the professional field. To address this gap, we developed an interactive competition that encourages students to improve their Bash skills through practical and competitive challenges. This gamified approach seeks to motivate autonomous learning and reinforce command line proficiency in a dynamic context. The results have been promising: of the 26 participating students, 85% considered the activity useful to improve their knowledge, and 71% expressed the need to delve deeper into Bash for their academic and professional future. These findings suggest that such initiatives may be an effective strategy to foster Bash learning in academic settings.

Problem
