Estrategias pedagógicas y didácticas utilizadas en las asignaturas teóricas del programa académico Técnico Profesional en Protección y Seguridad a Personas e Instalaciones

Abstract

The curriculum of the Professional Technical Program in Protection and Security of People and Facilities is made up of theoretical, practical and theoretical-practical subjects, so in many of these it is necessary to bring knowledge seen in the classroom to practice. Through observation in the classroom, it is evident that the students of this academic program have been presenting a series of drawbacks, especially in the appropriation of knowledge in purely theoretical subjects, Likewise, faithful reflection of the above are the grades obtained in the different academic periods, since making a comparison between the theoretical and practical subjects the problems presented by students of the academic program in relation to the theoretical, being imperative the need to analyze the factors that can influence this common denominator. These analyzed data are recurrent if an analysis is made since the opening of the program in 2013, where the practical subjects demonstrate better average grades. As a hypothesis of possible cause of the problem, it can be indicated that the didactic and pedagogical strategies used by the teachers of theoretical subjects are not being effective, perhaps because of the complexity of the subjects in question, by requiring greater concentration in the classroom by students.
