Resumo

El modelo de enseñanza aprendizaje en la educación superior ha cambiado notablemente en la última década. De un enfoque estático en el que el estudiante era un sujeto pasivo de su propio proceso de aprendizaje se ha pasado a un modelo dinámico en el que el alumno se convierte en el principal protagonista. En este contexto resulta primordial testar nuevos modelos que fomenten este nuevo rol del alumnado, así como su eficacia en términos de adquisición de competencias. En este trabajo se describe y evalúa la implantación de una metodología de Aprendizaje Basado en Proyectos como herramienta para fomentar la adquisición de competencias de nivel de grado universitario y, más específicamente, la competencia emprendedora. Con el fin de analizar el impacto de la intervención se desarrolló un análisis pre-test y postest entre un grupo de estudiantes, constatándose que el Aprendizaje Basado en Proyectos produce un aumento en la percepción de adquisición de las competencias, produciéndose una significativa mejora de la competencia emprendedora.
