Description
Para que el alumno egresado de una carrera de ingeniería alcance un perfil profesional exitoso es necesario que durante los cinco años de su formación académica no solo reciba los contenidos conceptuales valorados contemporáneamente en la profesión sino también las herramientas para acceder a saberes actitudinales que le servirán a lo largo de su futura vida profesional. La Asociación Iberoamericana de Instituciones de Enseñanza de Ingeniería y el Consejo Federal de Decanos de Ingeniería de la República Argentina, entre otros, promueven el desarrollo de competencias genéricas y un enfoque formativo centrado en el aprendizaje del estudiante, que destaque el protagonismo de los alumnos en su proceso educativo. Este trabajo presenta las estrategias diseñadas, implementadas y evaluadas desde el año 2012 hasta la fecha en un curso de Química General perteneciente a las carreras de Ingeniería Civil, Eléctrica, Electrónica y Mecánica en la Universidad Tecnológica Nacional, Facultad Regional Bahía Blanca (UTN-FRBB). La evaluación de las estrategias se realizó mediante el análisis de encuestas de percepción de cátedra involucrando tanto a los alumnos como a los docentes.

The present work presents the strategies developed from the year 2012 to date in a General Chemistry course belonging to the Civil Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Electronic Engineering and Mechanical Engineering. All of them are taught at the National Technological University, Bahía Blanca Regional School. The evaluation of the strategies was carried out through the analysis of professorship perception surveys, involving both the students and the teachers.
