Promotes educational innovation by implementing active methodologies

In these pages I share my experience investigating, in a private institution of Higher Education in Guatemala, how active methodologies favored student learning during the modalities assumed during the Covid-19 Pandemic: Emergency Remote Teaching and Blended Learning. Throughout the tour, teachers and students shared their experiences and perceptions of working virtually. Both modalities posed a series of challenges for the entire educational community, but the resilience, commitment, dedication and effort of teachers and students to adapt to change and face the challenges with determination, was key to achieve a work that ensured the educational quality and continuity of the training programs. For the research participants, the effects of active methodologies were evident: they generated spaces for teacher reflection which, in turn, strengthened the design of learning experiences, autonomous work, self-regulation, metacognition and the strengthening of digital competencies.
