This proposal introduces and evaluates a dynamic system of teaching signal processing using the Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) called MultiPAS. The authors are engaged in the Bologna process; thus, this subject is defined following the European Credit Transfer System (ECTS). The method consists of developing new signal processing applications using the main programming languages (Java, C++ and C#) and connecting them with 'Octave' mathematical software by means of the three specific gateways developed by the authors. It is important to stress the free-software nature of the developed gateways: as no licence is necessary, student access to this program of scientific calculus is easy. The learning results of this pedagogical innovation have been validated over the last three years.
