Nuevas formas de aprender: enseñanza tradicional vs enseñanza basada en las TIC

Abstract

In the present research work in education, a review is made of some of the techniques that are used in different subjects with the same quantitative nature and syllabus, but different methodological development in the classes. To do this, contextualization work is previously carried out and a sample of assessment, participation and performance variables is taken from students of the subjects of Business Statistics II and Quantitative and Qualitative Research Techniques in Criminology, taught at the Pablo de Olavide University during the period from the 2018/2019 academic year to 2022/2023. These are subjects with a differentiated development of Practical Teaching and Development (EPD) classes, mainly due to the use of Information and Communications Technologies (ICT). The subject of Business Statistics II has a more traditional teaching, with EPD classes being taught mostly in the regular classroom, given that only three sessions of the semester take place in a computer room. On the other hand, in the subject of the Degree in Criminology, all classes are taught in the computer room, hence it is interesting to analyze whether there are significant differences in the results between these two subjects. The analysis shows that the subject that frequently uses ICT in classes presents better student performance results than the subject that applies a more traditional methodology.
