Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic generated various difficulties in university teaching and innovations in the didactics of chemistry. This research presents the perception of the student body on the learning activities designed in the subject of General Chemistry for Engineering during the second semester of 2021. A participatory action research design was used, through perception surveys and focus groups to investigate the background sociodemographics, satisfaction with the subject, class participation and perception of learning activities. Among the main results stands out a high satisfaction with the subject and the designed learning activities, a low participation and aspects to improve in the format of these activities. These results agree with the positive perception of other innovations used in chemistry subjects and allowed the continuous improvement of these activities. © 2023 Facultad de Quimica, UNAM.
