Abstract

Abstract: The objective of this research project is to build a proposal for a Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) through the implementation of the PACIE virtual teaching methodology and the FEAINE model to teach and strengthen emotional intelligence (IE) to university students; for this, the need to create a virtual environment was diagnosed, the emotional state of the participants was evaluated and the course was designed. The study was based on a non-experimental quantitative approach with a transectional descriptive scope, in which 209 students of both sexes, aged between 20 and 56 years, who are enrolled in the first cycle of distance modality, collaborated. The instruments used were an ad hoc self-prepared questionnaire and the EQI-short version (EQI-C) adapted to the Ecuadorian context; the analysis was performed with the statistical program SPSS version 22. The results show that there is a need to create a VLE; In addition, men have greater emotional skills in interpersonal and intrapersonal intelligence and stress management, while women are stronger in adaptability.
