Aprendizaje Basado en Problemas mediante un modelo de Teleenseñanza

During the academic courses 2009-10, 2010-11, 2011-12, 2012-13 and 2013-14 Problem-Based Learning techniques have been applied together with an E-learning Model together with tutorial action with groups of volunteer students of the last courses of the School of Civil Engineering at the Technical University of Madrid, managing to increase the time of dedication and implication with the subjects. The experience has been developed with volunteer students enrolled in the subjects of Road (Grade), Roads I (old curriculum) and Roads II (old curriculum), since these are subjects that have historically obtained very low pass rates and efficiency of the environment 25%. The realized work has consisted, in the first place, of knowing the expectations that the students have on the tutorial, both at the beginning of the course as when it is finished, and later working with voluntary students applying Learning Based on Problems (LBP) for the knowledge acquisition resting on an tutorial system based on the e-learning. The use of these learning techniques have made the results obtained during the investigation much more satisfactory than those obtained without the application of these techniques as it has led to a number of nearby approved 100% better qualifications, highlighting the reduction that has occurred in dropout rates in the subjects studied, obtaining negligible levels.
