Evaluación de la efectividad de Google Workspace como herramienta de enseñanza aprendizaje para la asignatura de Ética en modalidad virtual Trabajo de titulación previo a la obtención del títul

Abstract

Abstract: This study evaluated the impact of using Google Workspace in the teaching-learning process for the Ethics course among virtual modality students at Universidad Técnica del Norte (UTN). The results show the comparison between the group that used conventional tools to manage their class and the group that implemented Google Workspace tools (experimental group). The findings showed a significant improvement in final grades in the experimental group, with an average of 7.9 compared to the control group's average of 7.1. Likewise, greater participation in collaborative activities and increased student satisfaction were observed in the experimental group, as evidenced by 85% of positive responses in the survey conducted. Tools such as Google Docs, Google Meet, and Google Classroom facilitated the understanding of concepts, with 88% of students perceiving an improvement in their learning experience. Additionally, the effectiveness of these tools can be in task organization, interaction between peers and teachers, and motivation to participate actively during class. The quantitative analysis was carried out through area calculations between curves and statistical analysis of the surveys, demonstrating the impact of Google Workspace on assignments, exams, and class participation. This study underscores the importance of implementing collaborative technologies to transform virtual education.
