Recurso educativo digital para la asignatura de biología del primero bgu paralelo A en la Unidad Educativa Fiscomisional del Azuay.

Abstract

This research was carried out at the Fiscomisional educational Unit of Azuay located in the province of Azuay, Camilo Ponce Enriquez canton. The address of the institution is Calle 28 de marzo, via Bella Rica with the students of the first year of high school parallel "A" in the subject of Biology in the elective year 2021. The research aims to develop a website as a learning strategy for students in the first year of high school "A", was entered various educational content that promote the teaching of students on the subject of Biology, through educational tools which allowed to improve student performance with platforms such as Educaplay, Google Forms, Kahoot, Wix, Canva, Miro and Mindomo. The main objective of the website is to provide students with a more interactive and meaningful learning that encourages feedback which can be entered instantly to all sections available on the website such as documents, images, videos, lessons and activities. This research used the ADDIE methodology is composed of 5 stages, these are: Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation and Evaluation. The analysis phase of the ADDIE model focuses on identifying the different variables that will be used to create and design the website and then proceeds to the design phase where the objectives, themes, evaluations, etc. are proposed. The development phase consists in the creation of the web site, then we move on to the next stage which is the implementation, which allows us to use the web site in different contexts and finally we have the evaluation phase which consists in interpreting the results and examining the prototype. This methodological technique is used for the development of websites in social, educational and learning environments. The approach used for this research is quantitative, so information was collected by means of two essential tools: surveys and interviews. The students of the first year of Bachillerato "A" were in charge of completing the surveys while the teacher in charge of Biology completed the interview we conducted. The results of the research show that the educational website "Bioweb" was well accepted by the students and the teacher. This allowed us to improve the teaching-learning processes and to improve the interactive contents for the students while the teacher of the subject found a new way to teach her classes using the website as an educational tool and in this way, we were able to fulfill all the objectives proposed for this research work. After carrying out the experiments to present the prototype "Bioweb" in the educational institution, it was possible to insert several suggestions put forward by the students and the teacher, thus creating new sections on the website which allowed the implementation of new content and structures in order to improve the educational performance in the subject of Biology applied in classes. Finally, the expectations were fulfilled with the prototype "Bioweb" achieving to structure in an effective way all the contents, activities and evaluations in the web site improving all the educational processes and innovating with a new way of teaching classes to the students.
