description | In the COVID-19 pandemic, we unexpectedly turned to an emergency remote education [ERE] mediated by ICT. In this context, from the interpretive paradigm, we conducted a descriptive research to report the perceptions about learning of university students of a science career, in a practical subject—Laboratory of Experimental Microbiology—having switched from a face-to-face education to an ERT. With a mixed methodological approach, we designed and validated a survey with closed and open questions that was solved by 56 students. Two analytical axes were used: a contextual one and a conceptual one, for which wecarried out a content analysis, both descriptive-quantitative and comprehensive-qualitative. The results show that more than 50% perceive that the objectives of the subject were not achieved and that they learned less. 80% consider that communication with teachers was good. The predominant conceptual spectrum of the student population is traditionalist. Therefore, we conclude the importance of working with ICTs from a constructivist perspective, within the framework of a “new vision of science”. |

Ante la pandemia por covid-19 pasamos inesperadamente a una educación remota de emergencia [ERE] mediada por el uso de TIC. En este contexto, desde el paradigma interpretativo, realizamos una investigación de carácter descriptivo para dar cuenta de las percepciones sobre el aprendizaje, de estudiantes universitarios del área de ciencias en una asignatura de carácter práctico —Laboratorio de Microbiología Experimental—, al pasar de una educación presencial a una ERE. Con un enfoque metodológico mixto, se diseñó y se validó un cuestionario con preguntas cerradas y abiertas, que fue resuelto por 56 estudiantes. Se utilizaron dos ejes analíticos: uno de carácter contextual y otro conceptual, para lo cual se realizó un análisis de contenido tanto cuantitativodescriptivo como cualitativocomprensivo. Los resultados muestran que más del 50 % percibe que no se lograron los objetivos de la asignatura y que aprendieron menos. El 80 % considera que la comunicación con los docentes fue buena. El espectro conceptual predominante del alumnado es tradicionalista. Por lo anterior, se concluye la importancia de trabajar con las TIC desde una perspectiva constructivista, en el marco de una “nueva visión de la ciencia”. Confrontado com a pandemia COVID-19 inesperadamente recorremos a uma educação remota de emergência [ERE]. Neste contexto, a partir paradigma do interpretativo, realizamos uma investigação descritiva, para dar conta das percepções sobre a aprendizagem dos estudantes universitários da área de ciências em uma disciplina prática — Laboratório de Microbiologia Experimental —, ao passar de uma educação em sala de aula para uma ERE. Com uma abordagem metodológica mista, foi desenhado e validado um questionário com perguntas fechadas e abertas, que foi resolvido por 56 estudantes. Foram utilizados dois eixos analíticos: um de natureza contextual e outro conceptual, para o qual foi realizadauma análise de conteúdo quantitativo-descritivo e qualitativo-compreensivo. Os resultados mostram que mais de 50% percebem que os objetivos da matéria não foram alcançados e que aprenderam menos. 80% consideram que a comunicação com os professores foi boa. O espectro conceptual predominante dos estudantes é tradicionalista. Assim, conclui-se a importância de trabalhar as TIC numa perspectiva construtivista, no âmbito de uma “nova visão da ciência” Universidad Pedagógica y Tecnológica de Colombia 2020-11-16 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion application/pdf text/html application/epub+zip application/xml https://revistas.uptc.edu.co/index.php/praxis_saber/article/view/11447 10.19053/22160159.v11.n27.2020.11447 Praxis & Saber; Vol. 11 No. 27 (2020): Didáctica de las Ciencias Experimentales; e11447 Praxis & Saber; Vol. 11 Núm. 27 (2020): Didáctica de las Ciencias Experimentales; e11447 Praxis & Saber; Vol. 11 No 27 (2020): Didáctica de las Ciencias Experimentales; e11447 Praxis & Saber; V. 11 N. 27 (2020): Didáctica de las Ciencias Experimentales; e11447 Praxis & Saber; v. 11 n. 27 (2020): Didáctica de las Ciencias Experimentales; e11447 2462-8603 2216-0159 spa https://revistas.uptc.edu.co/index.php/praxis_saber/article/view/11447/9876 https://revistas.uptc.edu.co/index.php/praxis_saber/article/view/11447/10131 https://revistas.uptc.edu.co/index.php/praxis_saber/article/view/11447/10132 https://revistas.uptc.edu.co/index.php/praxis_saber/article/view/11447/10377 Derechos de autor 2020 Maria Del Carmen Urzúa, Diana Patricia Rodríguez https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 |
