Estrategias de enseñanza en entornos virtuales: Un análisis crítico de la efectividad educativa

Abstract

The study examines the effectiveness of pedagogical strategies in virtual environments, the use of which increased dramatically during the COVID-19 pandemic. The objective is to identify the most effective practices and provide recommendations for improvement. A qualitative methodology of literature review was used, selecting studies between 2000 and 2023 that addressed educational strategies in virtual environments. The results show that teacher-student interaction is essential, highlighting synchronous and asynchronous modalities to maintain engagement. Personalization of learning, through adaptive platforms and flexible learning paths, facilitates greater performance and autonomy. In addition, the use of interactive technologies, such as gamification and simulations, increases motivation and understanding of complex concepts. It is concluded that, although these strategies improve learning, their effectiveness depends on technological accessibility and teacher training. To optimize virtual environments, continuous and personalized assessments and the promotion of transversal competencies such as self-regulation are required
