Transdisciplinarity as a strategy for the enhancement of 21st-century skills associated with difficulties in real world-setting through project-based learning in a group of EFL learners from a B.A (program) of Physical Education (P.E.)

Abstract

In the globalized and national contexts, the imperious necessity to respond quickly and reconsider current methodologies to learning throughout the educational industry and higher education institutions, in particular, becomes evident. The objective of this work was first, to analyze the correlation between English and the Physical Education of un undergraduate program at a higher-education institution in Bucaramanga in the curriculum using a transdisciplinary approach, determining that the transdisciplinary approach is an effective means of understanding the content of the information scheme by overcoming the limits of disciplinary division of knowledge. On the other hand, this study also contributes to the development and enhancement of 21st-century skills associated with difficulties in real- world-settings through project-based learning among the participants. The results allow us to extract guidelines for the design of a transdisciplinary promotion policy that considers the challenges and the levels of complexity that we could identify.
