• Abstract:

  Understanding what an educational project is involves identifying a problem, its causes and consequences and from there planning a process to achieve the objective that solves it totally or partially. This process involves from the selection of the problem, its treatment and the presentation of the results report: conception, planning, formulation of actions, implementation and evaluation. Collaborative learning is the instance of learning that takes place through the participation of two or more individuals in the search for information, or in the exploration aimed at achieving a better understanding or shared understanding of a concept, problem or situation. (scagnoli, 2005). Thus, in the subject of Electricity and Industrial Electronics taught in the Industrial Engineering degree, everything related to the field of collaborative learning has been used, so that all the students in the group prepared the textbook for the module, complying with the official career program approved by the National Technology of Mexico. In this order of ideas, Leidner and Jarvenpaa (1995) point out that collaborative learning, in addition to helping to develop critical thinking in students, also contributes to improving interpersonal relationships, since it implies that each of the members learns to listen, discern and communicate your ideas or opinions to others with a positive and constructivist approach. On the other hand, Barab, Thomas and Merrill (2001) refer to collaborative learning as the construction of meaning that results from sharing personal experiences. These authors insist that virtual environments help educational models to be more participatory, and expand opportunities for research, communication and distribution of knowledge.
