Abstract

The article takes care of a double intention. On the one hand, it presents a didactic experience in which one worked with college students, proposing the attended one of three subjets with traditional and virtual instances. On the other hand, it presents results referred to time and environment regulation that the participants did of such didactic experience in the traditional atmosphere and the virtual one. 92 students participated in the experience who attended subjets in an Argentine public university. All had to take care of so much the traditional instance as to the virtual one. Towards the end they gave answer to a questionnaire that, among other aspects, evaluates the use of strategies of regulation of the time and the atmosphere of study. One worked with paired samples; all the students gave answer to the questionnaire in their two versions; once, in traditional format and responding about its experiences in class, and another one, in digital format and centering the answers in its experiences in the virtual phase of the course. The results showed a better time regulation in the virtual context and, however, a more effective organization of the learning environment in the traditional instance. These results are interpreted in terms of the characteristics of the group of students, who did not hope to take care of a virtual instance and therefore they did not have easy access to the resources necessary to do it, becoming difficult this way to the organization and preparation of an ideal atmosphere to learn.
