ABSTRACT

The present study seeks to ascertain whether the academic procrastination of university pre-service teachers varied during the COVID-19 pandemic when compared to data collected from another sample (n = 794) taken before the pandemic, and the reasons that might explain this. 910 pre-service teachers responded to the PASS scale, Academic Procrastination Scale, Unintentional Procrastination Scale, Active Procrastination Scale, and the New General Self-Efficacy Scale during the pandemic. The results reflect greater procrastination than for the pre-pandemic sample; 37.8% felt that their procrastination had increased due to the pandemic, which was more evident amongst women, whereas 8.7% reported having procrastinated less, displaying the highest level of self-efficacy. In both instances, the most commonly alleged reasons were greater time management, together with changes they were forced to make in their study habits. We discuss the implications that might need to be considered when planning and organizing teaching, should a similar situation occur again. (AU)


El objetivo de este trabajo es conocer si la procrastinación académica de los estudiantes universitarios de formación del profesorado varió durante la pandemia de COVID-19 en comparación con datos recogidos de otra muestra (n = 794) antes de la pandemia y los motivos que lo justifican. Han participado 910 estudiantes, que respondieron a la escala PASS, la Escala de Procrastinación Académica, la Escala de Procrastinación Involuntaria, la Escala de Procrastinación Activa y la Nueva Escala de Autoeficacia General durante la pandemia. Los resultados indican una mayor procrastinación que la muestra prepandemia. Un 37.8% cree haber aumentado su procrastinación por la pandemia, sobre todo las mujeres, mientras el 8.7% afirman procrastinar menos, siendo los que mayor autoeficacia tienen. En ambos casos, los motivos más frecuentes han sido el disponer de más tiempo, junto a cambios en sus hábitos de estudio. Se comentan las implicaciones para la organización docente en caso de repetirse una situación similar. (AU)

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: The learning of scientific and technological subjects is fundamental in the society of the 21st century. However, a gender gap is detected in the choice of degrees in these subjects. Recent studies indicate the need to take action from the primary education stage to increase student motivation towards these disciplines. METHODS: We worked with a sample of 147 students in the final years of Primary Education. SRL and serious games were applied in initial tasks to computer programming. The objectives were to study the influence of gender, environment and academic level variables on the results in the resolution of initial programming tasks and on student satisfaction with their completion. RESULTS: The mean level of results in these tasks was high (8 out of 10). However, significant differences were found for gender, academic level, and the covariate age. With respect to satisfaction, no significant differences were found except in the continuity of work. CONCLUSIONS: The use of SRL and serious play tasks promotes good levels of performance and satisfaction in all students, although differences in favour of the male gender are detected.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Learning is increasingly frequent in B-Learning spaces. It is therefore necessary to study the characteristics that guarantee deeper and more successful learning in these learning environments. METHOD: We work with sample of 233 university students using the Moodle 3.1 platform in the third year of their degrees in Health Sciences. The effectiveness of four types of B-Learning on Learning Results (LR), behaviors on the platform, and student satisfaction are all studied. Prior knowledge is also used as a covariable. RESULTS: It was found that the B-Learning environment in which the students obtained better general Outcomes Learning Results (LR) and a higher degree of satisfaction was the one that included the use of infographics and virtual laboratories based on Self-Regulated Learning (SRL). CONCLUSIONS: The design of B-Learning environments together with the use of SRL, is a factor that enhances effective learning and increases student satisfaction, especially if they include infographics and virtual laboratories. In addition, the use of these resources implements better overall LR on a larger number of students. Likewise, it promotes more homogeneous groups in the general LO. Future investigations will be aimed at verifying these results in other knowledge branches.
