Abstract

The main objective of this master’s degree work is to develop critical thinking skills in students of acceleration program of IE Pascual de Andagoya in the city of Buenaventura (Colombia), through a didactic strategy to promote the strengthening of academic skills. To do this, three objectives have been proposed: first, to diagnose the main shortcomings that students have regarding critical thinking within the educational institution and its consequences in the teaching-learning process; second, to determine the main problems that students perceive in their daily life in school about teaching and learning processes and training environments and their impact inside and outside the classroom; lastly, to implement a didactic strategy that focuses on delving into the causes, consequences and reflection strategies on the problems encountered by students, to strengthen critical thinking at school, through the problem-based learning model. For this, a qualitative work has been carried out and tools such as the unstructured interview, didactic strategy and surveys have been used. A good reception was found on the part of the students of the generated proposal, as well as incentives to implement it at other times and subjects, within the educational institution.
