Abstract
Este trabajo tiene por objeto exponer los resultados obtenidos en un proyecto de
innovación docente sobre trabajo en equipo, nuevas tecnologías y metodologías participativas en el
ámbito universitario. El principal objetivo investigador ha sido conocer el uso que la denominada
Generación Google (g-Google) hace de las herramientas Web 2.0 para la elaboración de los trabajos
encomendados por los docentes en la universidad. Para ello, se propuso a los alumnos realizar una
actividad académicamente dirigida utilizando la herramienta Google Drive. Partimos del supuesto de
que la actividad propuesta permitiría al docente estar más cerca de los estudiantes de la g-Google que
están llegando a la universidad en la actualidad, al tratarse de una herramienta tecnológica de trabajo
en la red. A fin de obtener resultados comparados, se desarrolló la misma experiencia con un grupo de
alumnos de la generación pre-Google o Generación X. De cara a explorar las capacidades de uso de
la Web para el trabajo colaborativo y las posibilidades de la Web 2.0 para mejorar las metodologías
participativas en el aula universitaria se realizaron cuestionarios online y grupos de discusión a los
alumnos y docentes. Los resultados de la investigación desmitifican la creencia de que los jóvenes
que actualmente están llegando a la universidad poseen un gran dominio de los recursos de Internet,
al menos en lo que se refiere a la utilización de la Web 2.0 para el trabajo universitario.
This paper aims to present the results obtained in an innovation teaching project on team work, new technologies and participatory methodologies in the university environment. The main research objective has been to explore the use that the so-called Google Generation (g-Google) makes of the Web 2.0 tools in the elaboration of their assignments at University. We proposed students to carry out a follow-up academic activity using the Google Drive tool. We start from the assumption that the proposed activity would allow the teacher to be closer to the students of the g-Google that are beginning university, because it is a working technological too l in the web. In order to obtain comparative results, we developed the same experience with stud ents from the pre-Google or X Generation. We conducted online surveys and discussion groups with both stu dents and teachers participating in the activity to explore the possibilities of use of the Web for collaborative work and the possibilities of the Web 2.0 for improving participatory methodologies in Uni versity classes. The results of the experience demystify the common belief that young students who are beginning University today have extensive knowledge of Inte rnet resources, at least pertai ning to the use of the Web 2.0 for university assignments.
