Resumen

The didactic methodology is presented as an opportunity to innovate teaching strategies in the Final Project (PFC) course at the Professional School of Architecture (EPArq) of the Catholic University of Santa Maria de Arequipa, Peru (UCSM). This subject is theoretical-practical. Its achievements contribute to the specific competence of planning and design, for which the student develops the ability to develop urban architectural projects that meet social, technical, and aesthetic requirements. This methodology is part of a model that combines two components: problem-based learning (PBL) and information and communication technologies (ICT). The main objective is to develop students' critical-analytical thinking and promote responsibility for their learning using collaborative analysis worksheets designed based on PBL didactic tools and the implementation of ICT. Among the results obtained, the coordination in the architectural design and the collaborative work in the study of the problem, which in this case is presented as the design of the vertical circulation of hybrid buildings, stand out. It is concluded that the implementation of this teaching strategy allows for establishing a logical order in the analysis of vertical circulation axes, as well as supporting the design criteria of a hybrid building, which is considered an architectural device of complex functionality, which allows revitalizing urban centers and potentiating urbanity in contemporary cities.
