Un modelo pedagógico para la educación superior virtual centrado en el aprendizaje colaborativo

Abstract

Collaborative learning has great potential in the field of higher education since it promotes the collaborative knowledge construction, as well as the development of skills related to interaction that result in more significant learning processes. Based on a conceptual review of this type of learning, this work explores, based on three specific experiences, how a pedagogical model for virtual higher education can integrate it and what its implications are. The study highlights among its conclusions the need for careful planning, the change of the teaching role and autonomy in the management of learning.
