Feedback Model when Applying the Evaluation by Indicators in the Development of Competences through Problem based Learning in a Systems Engineering Course

Feedback can be very influential in students' learning, therefore, the university must be very clear about its procedures and rules on the time lapse of the response of the work done by them, and the comments made to positively influence in a sustained manner in the evaluation of learning. The present work shows the experience of applying the Problem Based Learning (PBL) methodology and also developing research competencies through Formative Research, and as a result of the evaluation of the learning of the Criteria and its Performance Indicators corresponding to the course Business Electronic which is taught by two teachers in theory and laboratory practices. The objective is to design a Feedback Model for the problems solved by the students in order to support the improvement of their learning. The methodology used is Problem Based Learning together with the Feedback Model, of real problems posed contemplating different contexts of the organisations; we have that from the Deliverable Report of each problem at the same time the incidences and observations are registered in the corresponding register and in this way the Feedback Report is elaborated. The results obtained reveal that the objectives of producing the Feedback Report are achieved, which should be sent as soon as possible to the students for analysis, to propose their own strategies for improving the shortcomings or errors, as well as having the motivation to continue progressing by accepting the suggestions or contributions of the teacher; as well as seeing an increase in knowledge, development of their competences, skills, attitudes, making their own judgements, and achieving the Student Results. In conclusion, the application of a well-planned active didactic strategy, the adequate evaluation of learning through the qualification of the indicators of each criterion, and the elaboration of a timely feedback report on the problems, will achieve the expected results for both the course and the student.
