Methodological strategy for the curricular emergency caused by the COVID-19 pandemic (Faculty of Geography, University of Havana).

The objective of this article is to present a synthesis of the methodological strategy adopted by the Faculty of Geography, at the University of Havana, in the face of the curricular emergency caused by the COVID-19 pandemic; as a contribution and expression of experiences in the search for solutions to the problems caused to the educational process during this situation. The methodological strategy designed was based on an action-research methodology, in which methods and techniques were used, such as: field observation, survey to teachers and students, documentary analysis, discussion group and methodological triangulation. This unfinished study, due to the dynamics of the health situation in the country, shows the action plan implemented during the school years 2020 and 2021, as well as the actions implemented in the transition to the so-called "normality". The quantitative and qualitative assessment of the conceived methodological strategy reveals the need to urgently address the possession of technological means for the transmission-appropriation of content; the costs of connectivity; the preparation for the use of educational platforms; the effectiveness of independent study; among other problems that conspire against the comprehensive professional training of the student in educational circumstances of curricular emergency.

Abstract

The objective of this article is to present a synthesis of the methodological strategy adopted by the Faculty of Geography, at the University of Havana, in the face of the curricular emergency caused by the COVID-19 pandemic; as a contribution and expression of experiences in the search for solutions to the problems caused to the educational process during this situation. The methodological strategy designed was based on an action-research methodology, in which methods and techniques were used, such as: field observation, survey to teachers and students, documentary analysis, discussion group and methodological triangulation. This unfinished study, due to the dynamics of the health situation in the country, shows the action plan implemented during the school years 2020 and 2021, as well as the actions implemented in the transition to the so-called "normality". The quantitative and qualitative assessment of the conceived methodological strategy reveals the need to urgently address the possession of technological means for the transmission-appropriation of content; the costs of connectivity; the preparation for the use of educational platforms; the effectiveness of independent study; among other problems that conspire against the comprehensive professional training of the student in educational circumstances of curricular emergency.
