Diseño de una unidad de enseñanza potencialmente significativa enfocada al método de tránsito para la detección de exoplanetas

Abstract

The objective of this work is to Design a Potentially Significant Teaching Unit (UEPS) for learning the exoplanet detection method transit. In order to be a support instrument for the teacher in the didactics of Astronomy looking for a meaningful learning by the students. The UEPS consists of eight sequential aspects of problem-situations, beginning with an inventory of concepts, which are multiple-choice questions for students of the Stars and Exoplanets elective at Francisco José de Caldas University. The results obtained will be analyzed through Hake's normalized Gain and Bao's concentration factor, determining AC patterns, which will allow evidencing or evaluating the UEPS designed in this work.
