Abstract

This degree work is oriented to the study of collaborative work strategies for teaching the subject of history in the fourth year of general basic education students of the General Manuel Serrano School, in the school year 2021-2022, since the essential element of the teaching profession is the search for and application of innovative strategies that facilitate the teaching and learning process of students. The type of research used was descriptive - explanatory, since through this it was possible to describe in detail the research phenomenon, the modality chosen was the field, which allowed conducting the surveys to the teachers of the institution. The methods used were inductive, deductive, historical-logical and analytical-synthetic, which made it possible to analyze specifically the selected topic of study, as well as the particularities of the methodological strategies of collaborative work to be applied in the classroom. Through the review of a number of research articles from high impact scientific journals of the last five years by various authors, the construction of the conceptual theoretical framework of this research was carried out, which constitutes the core part on which the other components of the degree work are based. Through the application of different methods of information collection such as the survey and observation guide, it was possible to identify that students do not show a high level of participation and motivation in the development of the teaching-learning process of the subject of history, which is why it was determined necessary to design a research on the phenomenon of study found with the aim of finding a solution that can solve the problems identified. Taking as a reference the results found, the importance of teachers in the academic process was highlighted, as well as the need to use methodological strategies on collaborative work, which facilitate the attention of specific skills in the area of history, which allows students to present a higher level of participation during the teaching- learning process, and to favor the fulfillment of the objectives and skills set out in the national curriculum of education for the fourth year of basic education, in the school General Manuel Serrano of the canton El Guabo. The arguments raised above, have motivated the design and implementation of the intervention proposal so that there is a positive impact on the educational process within the subject of history, that is why it was defined the development of a methodological guide for the application of the collaborative learning method using as a strategy the peer tutoring, which will lead to improve the interest in learning history content in students of the host institution. The methodological guide is oriented to be a help tool addressed to the teachers of the institution, in which the orientation on the organization of space, didactic and planning techniques, as well as activities that use the collaborative work modality to improve the educational process of the students are reflected.
