Hence, the purpose of this study is to validate a scale used to evaluate the degree to which the students perceive the five aspects of instructional design: objectives, curricular content, learning activities, educational resources, and the existing evaluation strategy at the Costa Rica Institute of Technology (TEC). Through the use of an analytical and descriptive study, as well as qualitative and quantitative techniques, a Likert evaluation scale was designed. According to the results, the final version of the instrument consisted of 33 items and had a confidence coefficient of 0.923. In regards to the evidence associated to its validity, it was possible to verify the representability and relevance of the instructional design components and their factorial structure. The main conclusion obtained from this study is the importance of measuring, from a systemic perspective, the instructional design components, in classroom, blended learning and virtual courses with tools that are properly validated in order to guarantee the confidence level and valid interpretation of the results. 2016 artículo científico 2365-9440 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=501550294028 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=5015 International Journal of Educational Technology in Higher Education application/pdf Universitat Oberta de Catalunya International Journal of Educational Technology in Higher Education (España) Num.1 Vol.13 |
