Technique of Flipped Learning, Methodology of Learning by Projects and Cooperative Learning applied to Computer Networks course of PUCP University

Abstract

This work's objective is to apply the Flipped Learning technique, Project-Based Learning and Cooperative Learning methodologies, in Computer Networks course at Pontifical Catholic University of Perú. The work was developed with students three consecutive years: 2016, 2017 and 2018; templates of face-to-face and non-face-to-face sessions were designed and subsequently evaluated as well as measuring instruments; teaching-learning activities were developed and executed. Results indicate effectiveness in students learning: 100% of them passed the course with 14,75 average grade, higher than previous years. Group surveys results on the use of the technique and applied methodologies show 3,8 average in a 1 to 5 scale; and a 4,7 average in the coevaluation. As conclusion, the use of this model and combined methodologies in the studied case made face-to-face classes more dynamic with more participation and commitment, the teaching-learning process was improved, and the teacher's facilitator role was materialized.
