Product-Based Learning Adaptation to an Online Autonomous Work Strategy in Restriction Conditions by Covid-19

The pandemic, declared by the world health organization in March 2020 due to Covid-19, caused a commotion in all areas worldwide. Regarding education, in most countries it caused the immediate closure of schools and the interruption of face-to-face classes. This situation forced educational institutions to continue their teaching in an improvised way through a virtual system. Given these circumstances, the use of active teaching and learning methodologies that are adaptable to a virtual education scenario becomes necessary. In this framework, the present work proposes an adaptation of the Product-Based Learning methodology to an online work environment, so that it is used by teachers as a teaching-learning strategy, where students can create digital educational resources such as part of their autonomous work. Additionally, the products developed may be part of the learning outcomes of university students in times of confinement and social distancing.
