Lectura comprensión estrategias texto argumentativo universitarios. A computer interface for training university students in reading comprehension of expository-argumentative texts is presented. A text is divided into several sections, for each of which several questions are presented; the reader must select an answer from among various choices and then a feedback screen is presented according to the answer. Two experiments were carried out to test the program’s effectiveness. The first one compared the performance of 50 students in two successive but equivalent lessons. In the second one, the performance of 18 students after four lessons was compared with that of 15 students after a single lesson. There were statistically significant differences in both experiments that support the training effectiveness, although with noticeable variability between participants. The scope and limitations of the program due to the number of lessons and the size of the population sample in the second experiment are discussed in relation to the outcomes. Se presenta el uso de una interfaz para el entrenamiento de estudiantes universitarios para la comprensión de textos expositivo-argumentativos. Un texto se divide en segmentos, en cada uno de ellos se realizan ejercicios consistentes en la solución de varios cuestionamientos; por cada cuestionamiento se ofrecen alternativas a elegir y se recibe realimentación de acuerdo con la alternativa elegida. Se evaluó la efectividad del sistema en dos estudios: en el primero, se comparó el desempeño de 50 estudiantes en dos lecciones sucesivas pero equivalentes, y en el segundo, se comparó el rendimiento de 18 estudiantes después de cuatro lecciones y con 15 estudiantes después de una sola lección. En ambos casos hubo diferencias significativas a favor de la efectividad del programa, aunque con notoria variabilidad entre participantes. Se discuten los alcances y limitaciones del programa y sus resultados de acuerdo con el tamaño de la muestra del segundo estudio y el número de lecciones llevadas a cabo.
