The formation of physics experimental skills in Agronomy students
Abstract
The study focuses its attention on the formation of experimental skills in agronomic engineering students. Its objective was directed to propose a didactic conception for the process of formation of experimental skills of physics in the career of Agronomy of the University of Pinar del Río. Theoretical methods (modeling, systemic-structural, analysis, synthesis, induction and deduction) and empirical methods (survey of physics teachers and document review) were used. The research was descriptive and assumed a mixed approach. The work was taken into account with integrative experimental projects with a systemic, investigative and professional approach that regulates didactic mediation and assigns distinctive and leading roles to professors and students to guarantee the efficiency of the teaching-learning process. The evaluation of experts made allows recommending the proposed conception as a valid option to enhance the efficient development of the process.
