Incidencia del aprendizaje basado en problemas en el proceso de aprendizaje de la química

Abstract

Abstract: The research focuses on analyzing the incidence of Problem-Based Learning in the chemistry learning process, for this purpose this strategy was implemented in the microcurricular planning, in which students recognized a problem, designed with specific learning objectives, they used group discussion to formulate conjectures, in addition to applying independent research and finally the development of the capacity for synthesis and dissemination of representative findings for the decision making, allowing a comparison of academic performance with the PBL, in relation to the traditional methodology. They actively participated in the development thirty first-year high school students, whose ages are between 15 and 16 years. The methodology used to meet the stated objective was: synthetic, inductive, deductive, statistical, hermeneutic and analysis; Additionally for the collection of information, a satisfaction survey was applied to the experimental group, obtaining the following results: significant development of skills, promotion of creativity, improvement of academic performance, strengthening of autonomous and collaborative work, conflict resolution and decision making.
