CONTEXTUALIZED CONCEPTUAL CARTOONS IN THE INITIAL TRAINING OF ENVIRONMENTAL ENGINEERS.

This article presents the results of the research entitled Comics in the teaching of science developed at the Francisco José de Caldas District University, which consisted of the design and production of didactic material for the teaching of science called contextualized conceptual comic strips. The methodology was based on a qualitative perspective of the design and validation process of the CC comics supported by the review of experts and researchers, as well as the content analysis of the academic productions of the students. Some of the results are evident in the cartoon called "El Trasteo" and the questions, reflections and experimental proposals of Environmental Engineering students in a mechanical physics course. The conclusions emphasize the didactic possibilities or potentials of Contextualized Conceptual Comics. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
