Abstract
Since cancellation of face-to-face education during the health emergency caused by COVID-19, higher education institutions, have had to guarantee the right to education through virtualization. Therefore, this work analyzes the teaching-learning process adapted to the virtual mode in the students of technical subjects of the professionalizing axis in the industrial engineering career a private university of Ecuador. Quantitative research is performed for this using surveys, performance index collection, and historical data. The method has a comparative scope between two academic periods, contrasting the data before and after the pandemic, the indicators are taken from students and teachers. The analysis of surveys is carried out in 3 components of teaching, in students are obtained: planning and methodology, with 81.1% considered as satisfied; teacher-assisted activities, with 79.1% content with the activities; and in practical activities, with 74.9% according to the tools used. Comparisons of indicators in different academic periods show minimal variations in performance, teachers improve the average performance score by 4.1%, and students drop academic performance by 2.6%. Finally, the correlation demonstrates a similar perception between students and teacher in the learning practice component. © 2021, Springer Nature Switzerland AG.
