Logic as a subject in computer engineering has characteristics and difficulties similar to those of other mathematics related subjects: very low academic achievement and high dropout. In instrumental disciplines such as logic, an interactive teaching-learning process is fundamental, and the immediate feedback is a key element of academic success. In a traditional face to face logic course the necessary feedback and support is usually provided by the classroom interaction between students and teacher. In contrast, in an e-learning paradigm based on the web, this feature can be provided through an intelligent tutor type tool. This article presents the design, development and implementation of a learning support tool for a non-face to face course of logic in the computer engineering program. This tool follows the perspective of student-centered design to provide the elements necessary for a successful learning experience. It also presents an pilot test with the evaluation of its results and a general discussion on the implementation of such tools for distance learning and self-learning
