The labor practice of technology in the career of Civil Engineering at the University of Holguin, Cuba

Abstract

The insertion of investigative labor practices in the formative scenario for the professional technical preparation should be considered as a strategy at institutional level. In this context, the labor, research and academic components of the teaching-learning process should be integrated in order to systematize knowledge, habits and skills with a professionalizing, interdisciplinary and fundamentalized intentionality of the contents and with a humanistic approach that favors their professional and integral growth. For this reason, the curricular design proposal of the Technology Work Practice subject for the second year of the Civil Engineering Career at the University of Holguin is socialized, so that it favors the development of the skills stated in the professional's model. From the use of a set of research methods of the theoretical and empirical level, from a professional and interdisciplinary didactic approach, the integration of the structural and road profile is conceived for an adequate management of the teaching-learning process, which allows, through instruction and labor participation, to improve the technical and cognitive skills of students in the development of their professionalization to integrate into the social environment, to cultivate their spirit and personality and to propitiate new learning environments with the appropriation of technology. The proposal offers an alternative and flexible organization in the current curricular conception of the study centers, which contributes to raise the quality of the training process.
