Abstract

The trend of curricular reforms in recent years has been to promote the scientific learning of students, the Peruvian curriculum, through the curricular area of ​​Science and Technology, poses as one of the skills that must be developed in students is the so-called “Design and build technological solutions to solve problems in your environment”, whose products are evaluated at an institutional level for the Eureka Science and Technology Fair contest, however many of these need to be strengthened with aspects of creativity at the design level of the technologies, therefore, we set as an objective, to implement Design Thinking to develop competence in the design and construction of technological solutions to solve problems in their environment in female secondary school students in the Science and Technology course, during remote classes. Applying the intervention based on design thinking from the IDEO proposal, considering functional creativity and various cognitive scaffolds developed in electronic learning, the results were favorable, achieving significant differences in the evaluation scores obtained before and after in the first and second phase of the execution of the intervention achieving a Level of significance = 1%, the students were able to identify an alternative technological solution to the problem presented, design the alternative technological solution, implement it and go through the validation process to comply with the specifications of design and operation and evaluates and communicates the operation and impacts of its technological solution alternative.
