Abstract

El objetivo de este trabajo es analizar el efecto de los escenarios presencial, mixto y on-line en los resultados académicos de los estudiantes considerando la interacción con plataformas e-learning. Los resultados muestran que los resultados académicos no se ven afectados por el escenario de aprendizaje, mientras que el grado de interacción con las plataformas e-learning se ve afectado por el escenario de aprendizaje. Además, el modelo de Efectos de Tratamiento se ha utilizado para estudiar el escenario de aprendizaje y la interacción con las plataformas de aprendizaje de manera conjunta. En este caso, los resultados académicos se ven afectados por el escenario on-line frente al presencial, pero no se ven afectados por el escenario mixto frente al presencial. En concreto, sobre un valor medio de 4,14 puntos, obtenido de los resultados académicos de todos los alumnos, con un tratamiento on-line los resultados bajan 1,01 puntos (24,41%), mientras que con un tratamiento mixto los resultados bajan 0,38 puntos (9,13%). Finalmente, utilizando la Regresión Extendida Polinomial Fraccionaria, se proponen modelos de predicción para cada uno de los escenarios.
