Research related to the teaching-learning process, for many years, has been a concern of teachers and researchers to transform the traditional role of the student as a spectator and of the teacher as the main actor. The work presented constitutes part of the research carried out by the authors in the search for proposals that transform the teaching-learning process of physics in pre-university education and their objective is to establish the foundations and recommendations for the use of projects as a method that encourages students to become protagonists of their own learning.

As investigações relacionadas com o processo de ensino-aprendizagem, há muitos anos, constituem uma preocupação de professores e investigadores para transformar o tradicional papel do aluno como espectador e do professor como ator principal. O trabalho apresentado faz parte da investigação que desenvolvem as autoras na busca de propostas que transformem o processo de ensino-aprendizagem de física na educação pré-vestibular e têm como objetivo estabelecer os fundamentos e recomendações para a utilização de projetos como um método que propicie que os alunos  convertam-se em protagonistas de sua própria aprendizagem.

The research in the search for proposals that transform the teachinglearning process of Physics in pre-university education, had the objective of proposing a methodology that incorporates the project method in the teachinglearning process, to contribute to the development of motivation for the study of the subject Physics in the students and that they become the protagonists of their learning. For the development of the research, methods of collection and processing of the information gathered were used, within the latter, observation and survey stand out. The selected sample consisted of 196 students in the 10th grade of the “Capitan Roberto Rodríguez Fernández” Urban Pre-University Institute, located in the city of Santa Clara, Villa Clara, Cuba. The results obtained with the application of the methods showed that it is necessary to produce a transformation in the teaching-learni...

This research proposes and validates a new Didactic Conception with an ecosystem approach for the teaching - learning process of the zoology of the chordates in the third year of the Regular Day Course, of the Bachelor Degree in Biology Education of the Faculty of Media Education "Félix Varela Morales" of the Central University "Marta Abreu" of Las Villas, Villa Clara, Cuba. The information for the diagnosis is obtained from the application of different empirical methods such as surveys, interviews, observation and review of documents. The Didactic conception is based on the Historical - Cultural Theory of LS Vygotsky and his followers, in which an ecosystem approach and confrontation to climate change is demonstrated, which, from its implementation in the aforementioned race, allows students to become even more aware of the imperative need to conserve biological diversity, as well...
