Proyecto CRASH: Enseñando cinemática y dinámica en el contexto del análisis pericial de accidentes

Abstract

Inquiry and Project-Based Learning methodologies have been proposed as methods to develop scientific competence. The Case Studies method is a kind of Project-Based Learning that incorporates inquiry procedures and can be useful for developing conceptual, procedural and epistemic dimensions of scientific competence. We present a learning experience on Kinematics and Dynamics based on Case Studies contextualized in traffic accidents evaluation by court experts. We assess its impact on the development of scientific concepts and procedures and we discuss tools and didactic strategies for this methodology.
