Instructors employ different teaching and learning strategies in the classroom. Although they traditionally give lectures to teach a topic, some of them also use active learning strategies. The literature shows the advantages of using active learning strategies compared to traditional teaching; however, there could be some resistance in their application between students and teachers. This paper shows part of the results of a study that focuses on investigating factors that can influence the adoption of active learning in the classroom in computing and engineering undergraduate programs. A questionnaire was applied to engineering students at a Peruvian university to determine their preferences in the teaching-learning strategies used by lecturers in the classroom. In general, it was observed that students positively value active and non-active (or traditional) learning strategies.

Teaching management, an indirect cause of the national public problems of the Peruvian University System, was investigated in 3 phases, at the level of design and formulation, concerning the academic-pedagogical management processes in teaching, how this involves the quality of the educational service provided to students and the continuous improvement of teaching management (TM), based on the measurement and evaluation of the Student Outcomes (SOs) of the accreditation model “ICACIT 2021”. For this purpose, key diagnostic indicators and associated key performance indicators (KPIs) were linked, with the case study showing an average level of compliance of 23.04% in the integral student training and 41.46% and 16.9% in level 2 processes, respectively. Likewise, the process of assessment and evaluation of the SOs set a target of 70%, showing that the measurement in the pilot of the performance achieved in most of the SOs does not reach the established target and this is associated with the processes of teaching management at levels 0, 1, 2 and 3, with an average of 55.6% of high risk of non-compliance. Finally, the improvement of teaching performance and development that make up teaching management contribute to the improvement of comprehensive undergraduate education through the monitoring of KPIs and SOs.

This work identifies the impact that the entry score, the origin place, the application option and the socioeconomic level have on the academic desertion of the electronic engineering students of the UPTC, admitted during 2015. The KNN (K Nearest Neighbors) algorithm was implemented to classify students as deserters and no-deserters. The selected factors for the study made it possible to establish a prediction of deserter and no-deserter students with a prediction error of 4.17%. The factor that most influences the prediction of student desertion was the admission score. A prediction error of 12.5% was obtained when independently relating this factor, which indicates that the program admission score is the most relevant indicator to predict the desertion. The factor that has the least relationship with desertion is the student's origin place with a prediction error greater than 40%. In this study, the most significant causes of student desertion in the program were identified in order to propose follow-up and accompaniment strategies to students and thus reduce desertion rates.

This paper reviews the design and implementation of a set of quality improvement tools aimed to contribute to the monitoring and controlling of engineering programs in a Chilean university. The new accreditation law regarding the quality assurance of the undergraduate programs, limits the access to programs such as medicine, pedagogy and dentistry. Therefore, engineering programs not covered by the law and with expired accreditations will have to look for either a national agency to certify the quality of their programs, an international agency to get accredited, or define internal mechanisms for self-control. This situation jeopardizes the continuity of the efforts already made by engineering programs to get nationally accredited. Therefore, some tools, a new internal structure and instruments were defined by the authorities responsible for the academic quality of the programs. Those aimed to accomplish both, self-controlling the programs and preparing them for either national certification or international accreditation in the near future.

In this paper, we describe the design and implementation of a low-cost tank control system for engineering and technology education which arose according to the challenges for education produced by the pandemic of COVID-19. The interest with this investigation was to develop in a short time a remote laboratory for control systems education wherein the students were able to design and implement their digital classic controllers (P, PI, and PID). In the remote laboratory, the students can program their digital controllers using the programming language Python and performing the tasks that are commonly employed in control systems such as plant identification, modeling, controller design, implementation, and debugging. From the technical perspective, the laboratory is composed of two tanks whose level is measured by an analog ultrasonic sensor and it is controlled by a Raspberry Pi with a set of motor pumps. The laboratory is embedded in a web engine which allows the students to access it from their homes or in any location. At last, we expose the different experiments with the plant and the control system to illustrate the features and potentialities of the proposed remote laboratory.

The objective of the work was to evaluate the development of variational thinking after the application of a didactic strategy based on mathematical modeling, in civil engineering students from the Province of Abancay, in Peru. The sample was 111 students who worked in two experimental groups and in a control group. The evaluation of the development of variational thinking was carried out according to covariational reasoning. The results show that the application of the strategy allowed the development of variational thinking because it significantly improved the level of covariational reasoning, allowing students to develop and strengthen skills to coordinate the amount of change in the variables.

The change in classroom methodologies due to Covid-19 Pandemia come with the application of the Internet and 2.0 tools (mainly social networks) in a country that does not have an equal distribution of internet connection. Furthermore, Universidad San Ignacio de Loyola's competencies model approach based on the constructivism theory led us to research if students' training can be improved by this type of resources as they foster important aspects such as socialization, information searching and the achievement of a common goal, etc. This work aims to analyze the information and communication technology (ICT) university learning processes and student preferences for working either inside or outside the classroom of engineering students. Our objectives are focused on knowing: the students' feelings on social software and its influence on collaborative and group work; the social network tools they use and, if there are any differences in terms of collaborative work perceptions based on a specific students' location. The instrument for data gathering was a three-dimensional questionnaire. The main results are: students are interested in group work as a type of classroom methodology; students have little knowledge of technology tools (except for social networks). These results provide a reliable diagnostic instrument for the variables that comprise this tool.

This article presents the measurement, and evaluation carried out on the student outcomes, “Environment and Sustainability” (Student outcome H), and “Project Management” (Student outcome L), from the Formulation and Evaluation of Projects subject that belongs to the Curriculum of the Chemical Engineering Program at the National University of San Antonio Abad of Cusco (UNSAAC) during the academic semesters 2020–I and 2020–II. The student outcomes, “Environment and Sustainability”, and “Project Management” that have three criteria, and two criteria respectively, were measured in a collaborative work called “capstone project”. In the 2020–I semester, all the student outcomes were achieved with the exception of the criterion H-3 (It proposes what kind of technologies could be applied in order to mitigate environmental impacts generated for industrial processes, considering a sustainable development approach). In the 2020–II semester, all the student outcomes were achieved with the exception of the criterion H-2 (It evaluates the environmental impacts that are generated by the industrial project considering environmental standards). In order to improve the performance of the student outcome “Environment and Sustainability”, methodologies related with environmental standards, and environmental management were proposed in order to be applied in the curricula of the Chemical Engineering Program. On the other hand, the student outcome “Project Management” was applied in the capstone project adequately; it was the first time that this topic was implemented in the subject; however, the application of the ten knowledges of project management, according to PMBOK, was well fixed, and the student outcome was overcome in both semesters.
