Estrategia de aprendizaje significativo en Biología con uso de plataformas virtuales en BGU dentro de U.E. Luis Cordero

Abstract

Education is affected due to the changes and factors developed in the world, orienting it to a complex need for changes, for the fulfillment of its objectives and skills in different areas of knowledge from elementary level, to continue with deep specialized knowledge, in the different branches of need. The changes have been mainly in what is learned and how these means should be applied, but what is used to learn in schools has not been changed, since the curriculum has not been severely clear on how to achieve what it aims at. The way in which learning takes place needs to be modified in a procedural way in conjunction with processes oriented to the use of new tools. The learning of subjects must be meaningful, taking into account that knowledge is accumulated in order to be used in its respective situations. But in order to focus on a knowledge it is necessary to have a well elaborated and managed strategy according to the objective. On this occasion, we analyze the way in which we intend to reach this learning in the subject "cell cycle" in the 2nd year of BGU with different research instruments considering two parallels, their teachers and students' opinions and a previous and subsequent test. This in order to develop a guide for meaningful learning and achieve the desired objective through the use of virtual platforms in the subject of Biology in the 2nd year of BGU. The proposed guide contains different methods, considering the current resources used by virtuality. Such as virtual platforms, being helpful for teachers who need to know about their use in classes, as well as for students who approach this area of the "cell cycle". The same is applied and executed to check the advances that are presented, having a considerable improvement when contrasting the results obtained in the grades before and after the application of the strategy.
