Compendio de recursos didácticos para el aprendizaje de la termodinámica dirigido a los estudiantes de BGU

Abstract

The ongoing education system change demands the application of new methods to learn. This being said, the following research paper displays the use of didactic tools so that students can learn Thermodynamics in BGU according to the Ecuadorian Curriculum based on constructivism and significant learning. It is worth mentioning that students must be active participants in their learning process, taking into account their previous knowledge and their logical and reflective thinking development. Through surveys applied to 3rd-semester students of the major Pedagogy of Experimental Science, it was shown little interaction in their learning process when they were in BGU due to insufficient experimentation and interaction with Physical Phenomena to study. Therefore, it was necessary to create a didactic BGU Thermodynamics guide for the student since the objective is to boost and motivate their autonomous active learning based on the performance criteria of skills regarding the subject. This guide helps the student with a variety of didactic tools that they can manipulate, observe, hear, analyze, and so on; in this way, building their own learning will be possible.
