Paper Abstract:
|
FIT courses are an approach to distance learning oriented to flexibility, fast-track learning, and directed interactivity. This model has been recently developed in our institution to develop certain basic skills included in some key but non-core courses in several university undergraduate programs. FIT courses normally are taught as interactive broadcasting involving lecturing, problem-solving and continuous evaluation. Students have a ubiquitous presence several times in the week and they are enrolled in disperse far locations through the country. By depicting its methodology centred on tools and educative resources to face the challenge of understanding and applying the statistics concepts and constructions, this work reports the outcomes of the teaching and learning experiences in terms of the daily log and the quantitative learning to be gained. We show the analysis for the course evaluation outcomes as a result of the continuous assessment in the learning tasks. |
