Abstract
En este trabajo se presentan las características y conclusiones del “Seminario sobre metodologías en las prácticas de campo” celebrado en Rascafría (Madrid) del 17 al 20 de septiembre de 1996. Los tres tipos de prácticas que fueron objeto de discución son las dirigidas, semidirigidas y no dirigidas. Se concluyó: a) que el trabajo de campo es insustituible en cualquier nivel académico de la enseñanza de las Ciencias de la Tierra, ya que que el Campo es el lugar ideal para ejercitar la observación y resolver problemas; b) que el alumno debe recibir exclusivamente la información que necesite para dar solución a los problemas; c) que las prácticas no dirigidas y semidirigidas parecen ser las más adecuadas en la formación de alumnos, si bien, los problemas docentes no pueden ser resueltos por una única metodología; d) por último, que existe un problema de fondo común al aula y al campo que consiste en la aceptación,
por los alumnos, de lo establecido sin un análisis críticos.
This work contains the main features and conclusions of the “Workshop on field training methods in Earth Sciencies” held in Rascafría, near Madrid, from 17th to 20th September, 1996. Three approaches to field training were discussed: directed (or rigidly conducted by the instructor), partially directed, and undirected (with growing space for students’ initiatives). The essential conclusions of the meeting were: a) field-work teaching is basic for teaching Earth Sciencies at any level since the field is the most suitable place for observing and for exercising problem-solving abilities; b) the students should exclusively receive the information they need for solving the problems (additional one is viewed as encumbering and even harmful); c) trough there is not a single valid method for all learning situations, partially directed and undirected activities seem to be the most useful ways forward field training; d) the field learning problem should not be isolated of the general learning
