Collaborative learning for the control of weevils in mosaic plants

Abstract

The objective of this paper was to develop and evaluate the training process, during the undergraduate work, based on collaborative learning with students of Agricultural Production and for the control of weevils in Musaceae. The design was based on a control group and an experimental group articulating the pedagogical process with the technical one in ten training sessions in diverse learning environments. The rubric was the tool that supported the pedagogical evaluation from the collaborative learning in the experimental group and was compared with the traditional evaluation in the control group. Action research was used and the pedagogical process was implemented in theoretical and practical classes. The results showed significant differences in attention capacity. Conclusion: Collaborative learning is an effective strategy for disciplinary mastery and is significantly related to academic performance and the ability to share different ideas in the students of the experimental group, with respect to the students of the control group.
