Project Details

Description

Classroom experiences show that certain concepts taken up in class by teachers are unfamiliar to students despite the fact that they have been addressed in previous courses, which can affect subject comprehension, motivation, and academic performance of students. participants; Given this, the proposal presented here seeks, based on the biological concepts remembered by undergraduate biology students, to recognize methodological strategies associated with said learning.

For this purpose, at least 78 biology students from different universities in Bogotá will be included, who, after signing the informed consent, will fill out a virtual survey, designed by the researchers, which will allow them to recognize: I.

The sociodemographic information of the population II.

The concepts remembered and III.

The classroom strategies developed in the courses. Through a factorial analysis, the correlation between the level of recall of the concepts will be established according to the assessment given by experts, and the classroom methodologies selected by the study subjects.

If an association is found between the aforementioned concepts and strategies, the results of this study may be implemented in biology classes, representing an empirical and documented contribution, to the recognition of favorable environments for the appropriation of knowledge and for the teaching of natural sciences.
