Transdisciplinary techno-artistic experience in university teacher training
Abstract
This study presents a transdisciplinary techno-artistic experience conducted with students of the degree in Preschool Education from the University of Valencia. The experience seeks to promote the use of technologies with a contemporary approach through new creative forms such as sound-visual cartographies. The objective is to understand the students' perception of these transdisciplinary experiences that combine art and technology and to evaluate the contribution of new knowledge, ICT skills, and reflection in the teaching and learning process. To evaluate the practice, a validated questionnaire was applied to 120 students, using a quantitative methodology with 8 scales and a total of 48 items.The analysis dimensions are the following: developed reflective skills, levels of reflective thinking, learning process, awareness of students’ own learning, the role of the teacher, connection of theory and practice in learning and experience, and innovation and adaptation to teaching objectives and competences. The results show how the activity helps university students acquire digital skills, develop their creativity, and understand the process of autonomous technological learning and reflective self-awareness, as well as the value of collaborative group work.
