“…Los resultados del estudio de Abella et al (2020) coinciden en gran medida con los de la investigación de Granado et al (2020). En este caso, la encuesta realizada muestra cómo el método del ABP logra que los estudiantes desarrollen sus competencias (tanto en las competencias específicas como en las transversales), sobre todo las relativas a las habilidades de análisis:…”

“…No obstante, los resultados no pueden ser concluyentes a propósito de los efectos del ABP, dado que Granado et al (2020) aseveran que es necesario investigar más a propósito de la eficacia del método del ABP para distintos niveles académicos, no solo en educación superior, y asignaturas y áreas curriculares (tal y como se observa en la Tabla 2), aun teniendo en cuenta que los resultados a los que estos investigadores han llegado son inequívocamente positivos en cuanto a los efectos de implementar el ABP para la adquisición y el desarrollo de competencias específicas y transversales. Como reiteran la práctica totalidad de los estudios empíricos sobre el ABP, las encuestas revelan que el autoaprendizaje es una de las claves de bóveda del éxito de dicho método de enseñanza y aprendizaje.…”

El aprendizaje basado en proyectos (ABP) constituye un método que puede resultar clave para la educación del siglo XXI. Basándose en el plan o proyecto de acción como pilar, el ABP está resultado exitoso en dos grandes campos de lo educativo: el éxito escolar a través de un aprendizaje autoconsciente y la generación de un espacio de inclusión en la escuela. Objetivos: Se busca conocer, en primer lugar, el estado del arte actual a propósito del ABP, y, en segundo lugar, hallar puntos críticos o que requieran nuevas líneas de investigación y de mejora del método educativo del ABP. Metodología: Se hace uso del método de la revisión bibliográfica sistemática y crítica. Los dos criterios de búsqueda de la información han sido el éxito escolar y la atención a la diversidad en relación con el APB, mediante la búsqueda de publicaciones en índices de alto impacto como Scopus, desde Teseo hasta Science Direct, Google Scholar y Dialnet.

Lessons Learned from Online Teaching and Their Implications for Students’ Future Careers: Combined PLS-SEM and IPA Approach

2023

As far as students are concerned, there is a well-founded relationship between academic performance and career management from which a special professional path can result, based on the multitude of knowledge, skills, and experiences acquired during the years of study. To this end, the presence and help of teachers participating in the learning process, the teaching activities they are involved in, and their own participation are determinant factors. This research aims to highlight the impact that the above factors have on the professional future of students. For this purpose, 395 respondents, including students in the bachelor’s and master’s cycles, were involved in the research process, to whom a questionnaire was given in electronic format during two stages: one where the didactic activity was carried out in online format and the other carried out face-to-face. Hypotheses testing was performed using partial least squares structural equation modeling. The present study focuses on two main directions regarding the results obtained. Thus, with respect to the acquisition of knowledge and the development of student skills, it emerged that the effect of the content in the didactic activities on student skills and the development of competencies is strengthened by the skills and degree of involvement of the teaching staff from the university environment. Related to the management of students’ careers, the analysis showed that the effect of the content in didactic activities is complemented by the accumulation of knowledge and the formation of student skills. The rigorous economic training resulting from didactic activities constitutes a main pillar in the students’ future, even more so depending on how much they perceive that the topics covered in the university courses are of interest to them. The results of this study can serve as theoretical support for future research that addresses the topic of student career management and the implications of university activities on knowledge and skills. In addition, the results can support decisions for the management of higher education institutions regarding the development and implementation of university programs and educational strategies with the aim of increasing the involvement of teachers and students in the teaching–learning process.

Barriers and Facilitators to the Learning and Acquisition of Research Competencies among Nursing Students through Active Methodologies: A Qualitative Study Using Reflective Writing

et al. 2023

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Background: The development of educational research, critical thinking skills, and evidence-based practice requires proposals for educational innovation. The purpose of this study was to explore the perspectives of undergraduate nursing students on the barriers and facilitators after the implementation of a novel activity within the course of research methodology, composed of three active learning strategies: (a) project-based learning; (b) small-group learning; and (c) self-directed learning. Methods: A qualitative exploratory study using reflective writing was conducted at the Nursing Department of the Red Cross School (Spain). Seventy-four nursing students participated in the study, enrolled in the research methodology course. Purposive sampling was used. Online reflective notes were collected from a script of open-ended questions. An inductive thematic analysis was performed. Results: The new proposals facilitated learning of the subject matter and its contents. They were useful and enabled the students to put the contents into practice. In addition, they improved the students’ organization, planning, and involvement. The barriers identified were a lack of time, ambiguity, inadequate tutoring or novelty of the work, and inequity in the distribution of tasks and workloads. Conclusions: Our findings shed light on the barriers and facilitators identified by nursing students when implementing an educational innovation proposal, using three active learning methodologies as learning tools for the subject of nursing research.
