Efecto de un Entorno Virtual de Aprendizaje (EVA) que utiliza la estrategia de Aprendizaje Basado en Problemas (ABP) en el desarrollo de la competencia científica de explicación de fenómenos, con estudiantes de octavo de la Institución Educativa Antonio Baraya

Abstract

The objective of this research is to identify the effect of a Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) utilizing the didactic strategy of Problem-Based Learning (PBL) on the development of the scientific competency of explaining phenomena. Throughout the research, the relationship of PBL as a didactic pathway in the design of the VLE is demonstrated, where various types of activities are combined around the dimensions of evaluating scientific competency (conceptual, methodological, attitudinal, and integrative). Furthermore, the progression level of the development of the scientific competency of explaining phenomena within the three modules comprising the VLE is disclosed, as well as how this type of research modifies teaching practice and learning processes.
