Validation of the perception of the methodological knowledge of the students at the San Pedro Sula Regional University Center of the Francisco Morazán National Pedagogical University

Abstract

This study validates the perceptions of the students of the San Pedro Sula Regional University Center (CURSPS) of the Francisco Morazán National Pedagogical University (UPNFM) about their methodological knowledge based on their knowledge about the UPNFM educational model and its components: study plans, methodological script, lesson plans, learning resources, and forms of evaluation of their learning. The validation is done with a Likert scale with 57 statements and applied as a survey to 91 students enrolled in Quantitative Research Methodology and Qualitative Research Methodology, II period, 2020. The scale’s validation objectives were met above the expected statistical demands and that is why it is shown that the methodological knowledge of the students is explained by their knowledge about the lesson plans, learning resources, the study plans and the forms of evaluation of their learning.
