Resumen
El ordenamiento territorial es una disciplina que busca organizar los usos del suelo de manera
sostenible en un territorio, buscando minimizar los conflictos entre estos. Por su naturaleza es
interdisciplinaria y está relacionada no solo con aspectos físicos del territorio, sino también con
políticas públicas, participación ciudadana y normativa institucional. Organizar eficientemente
la ciudad facilita la gestión de obra pública y reduce los procesos burocráticos. Esta ponencia
tiene como objetivo exponer una experiencia de 8 años de enseñanza de ordenamiento
territorial para la carrera de Ingeniería Topográfica en la Universidad de Costa Rica, abordando
la experiencia en la utilización de diferentes técnicas didácticas. Metodológicamente este
trabajo se basa en evaluaciones del desempeño docente desde el año 2010 hasta el 2021 (con
una interrupción de cuatro años), correspondientes al curso dedicado a ordenamiento territorial,
estas evaluaciones se realizaron semestralmente y se completaron por las personas estudiantes
de forma anónima, así mismo, se complementa con experiencias de docentes que han incluido
aspectos relacionados con ordenamiento territorial en sus propios programas. Mediante un
análisis cualitativo se busca exponer las estrategias didácticas que se han adaptado mejor
a los objetivos de aprendizaje, así como visibilizar la importancia de enseñar ordenamiento
territorial para agilizar los procesos de inversión pública en la ciudad. Entre los principales
hallazgos, se encuentran la eficacia de las visitas de campo, el uso de Sistemas de Información
Geográfica en el aula y la incorporación de herramientas colaborativas en la enseñanza de
temas territoriales en ingeniería.
Spatial planning seeks to organise land uses within a territory sustainably, trying to minimise conflicts between them. By its nature, it is an interdisciplinary field related not only to physical aspects of the territory but also to public policies, citizen participation and institutional regulations. Furthermore, the efficient organisation of the city facilitates public infrastructure management and reduces bureaucratic processes. This paper aims to present an experience of eight years of teaching planning for the Topographic Engineering degree at the University of Costa Rica; it explores experiences using different didactic techniques. Methodologically, this work is based on assessments of teaching performance from 2010 to 2021 (with a four-years gap), from a course focused on planning; these appraisals were carried out every six months and were completed by students anonymously. This information is complemented by the experiences of university lecturers who have included aspects related to planning in their modules. Finally, through qualitative analysis, this paper aims to show didactic strategies that have been best adapted to the learning objectives from the modules, as well as to make visible the importance of teaching planning to speed up the processes of public investment in the city. Among the main findings are the effectiveness of field visits, the use of Geographic Information Systems in the classroom and the use of collaborative tools in teaching territorial issues in engineering.
