Project based learning: a pedagogical strategy that enables the learning of the effects caused by microorganisms in health

Abstract

This article is part of a degree project that uses project-based learning as a pedagogical strategy that enables meaningful learning about microorganisms and their relationship with health. This report presents the previous conceptions that students of the Institution Educative Sol De Oriente located in the municipality of Medellín-Antioquia have about the subject under study. This work is carried out with 37 students, of which three of them were taken to perform the analysis of the research using the interpretative-case-study method. Partial results of the research are presented based on the relationships students establish between microorganisms and some events of daily life; likewise, it realizes the anthropomorphic vision they have over them.
