| Disgrifiad: | Assessment of educational innovation efforts must be integral. Among other, it is necessary to consider students' perspective on the impact of educational innovation in their formation. This becomes even more critical if educational innovation efforts include the use of a model like the Problem Based Learning. This paper presents the results of a survey study made in a context where problems take form of software development projects, made by systems engineering students in real contexts. The study aims to measure the impact of the implementation of the PBL model in the formative process of system engineering students. The study was conducted by considering regular students of the National University (UNA) in Costa Rica. Data collection was face to face with the students and measured various aspects of the students’ perspective on the educational model. Results suggest a high motivation and a positive effect on students. Their willingness to learn, apply knowledge and develop their skills in developing real software engineering projects, was identified as relevant results of the educative process. Student's satisfaction is evidenced by the achievement obtained to complete the project and implement the software. The assessment of the skills varied throughout the educative process. However, aspects as the project management, leadership, and team work maintain a high valuation and are fundamental pillars for the implementation of the development methodology used during courses. |
