Virtualización de las asignaturas de estudios generales en la formación universitaria. Propuesta de concepción teórico-metodológica para su aplicación

Abstract

The general studies in university education, being a common core in all careers, have caused problems of space to comply with the offer of these courses. These courses provide knowledge and skills that complement professional training. Virtualization makes it possible to complement or replace face-to-face attendance in the teaching-learning processes, thus saving resources and adapting space and time to the needs of students and teachers according to the availability of technological tools that are currently part of the educational process. A theoretical-methodological conception was developed with dimensions and components that guide the process of educational virtualization for general studies in university education, as an option for the optimization of resources and generation of new learning spaces based on dimensions with two components: the theoretical and the methodological in which the orientations for the development of the conception are specified. The theoretical component establishes the conceptual bases of the proposal, while the methodological component presents the stages of the component and their respective actions for its implementation in the general studies subjects in university education.
