Abstract
espanolEl trabajo colaborativo en ambientes virtuales de aprendizaje adquiere gran relevancia en momentos en que la tecnologia se utiliza de manera intensa. En este trabajo se muestran los resultados de una investigacion realizada en la Universidad Estatal a Distancia (UNED) de Costa Rica, sobre la percepcion que tiene el estudiantado del concepto y las implicaciones del trabajo colaborativo en dos cursos en linea que facilita la Direccion de Extension Universitaria (Dirextu) de la UNED. El objetivo de este estudio es destacar la diferencia que existe entre el trabajo colaborativo y el trabajo grupal, asi como conocer las herramientas que se pueden utilizar para la promocion de este tipo de actividades en los entornos virtuales de aprendizaje. La metodologia utilizada para este articulo consistio en aplicar una encuesta a dos grupos de estudiantes, cada uno perteneciente a dos cursos virtuales diferentes de la Direccion de Extension Universitaria (Dirextu) de la UNED. Este estudio se realizo con base en la investigacion cuantitativa, para ello, se aplico un instrumento con preguntas abiertas y cerradas, el analisis de los resultados se realizo con la ayuda de tablas y figuras (graficos). Al final, se exponen una serie de conclusiones y recomendaciones entre las que destacan que al estudiantado le gustan las actividades colaborativas, por la diversidad del modo de ensenar y el favorecimiento de los estilos de aprendizaje. EnglishThe collaborative work in virtual learning environments becomes more relevant at a time when technology is used intensively. This paper shows the results of research conducted at the Universidad Estatal a Distancia (UNED) in Costa Rica, about students’ perceptions around the concept and implications of collaborative work in two online courses provided by Direccion de Extension Universitaria (Dirextu). The aim of this study is to establish the difference between collaborative work and group work as well as knowing the tools that can be used to promote this type of activity in virtual learning environments. The methodology used for this article applied a survey to two groups of students, each belonging to two different virtual courses of the Direccion de Extension Universitaria (Dirextu).
