JUAN VAZQUEZ, Norma Patricia. Teaching and learning from the approach of integrating projects for tourism education. RIDE. Rev. Iberoam. Investig. Desarro. Educ [online]. 2020, vol.11, n.21, e041.  Epub Apr 23, 2021. ISSN 2007-7467.  https://doi.org/10.23913/ride.v11i21.763.

The objective of this article is to describe a didactic strategy that uses integrative projects as articulators of cognitive and metacognitive knowledge to ensure student learning. Therefore, it will be important to determine if the didactic strategies used were developed in the right conditions for linking learning. Integrative projects are a didactic tool whose objective is to link thematic contents with practice. In this research, the Facultad de Ciencias de la Administración C-IV of the Universidad Autónoma de Chiapas was taken as an object of study, and specifically some students of the degree in Tourism Management. Most of the competency units that structure the seventh, sixth and third semesters were involved. From a total of 136 students, of them 69% women and 31% men, 26 teams were formed and followed up from August 2016 to 2018.
