educación experiencial, nuevas tecnologías, modelo de Kolb, role-plays, reuniones, debate grupal, e-portfoliosResumen
La educación experiencial es un enfoque educativo que parte de la premisa de que el aprendizaje se produce cuando el estudiantado entra en contacto directo con la realidad estudiada. Son todavía relativamente escasos los trabajos que han abordado la educación experiencial en el aula dentro de los estudios superiores. El presente trabajo pretende contribuir a esta línea de investigación presentando una propuesta de educación experiencial basada en el uso de las nuevas tecnologías para la asignatura Dirección de Empresas de segundo curso del grado en Administración de Empresas de la Universitat Jaume I. El objetivo de esta propuesta es crear un entorno de educación experiencial en el aula basado en un catálogo de actividades que permitan abordar las cuatro etapas del aprendizaje experiencial propuestas por Kolb (pensar, actuar, reflexionar y experimentar). Estas actividades son los role-plays a través de la aplicación Flip, las reuniones con el personal directivo a través de Google Meet, el debate grupal por medio de Twitter y la creación de e-portfolios a partir del análisis de documentos corporativos. Esta investigación expone el diseño e implementación de las citadas actividades y resume los principales resultados alcanzados con las mismas.
