Abstract

Competency-based training has been seen as a good way to improve the quality of student learning to the extent that maximizes its level of participation in the process of teaching -learning. This paper shows the experience carried out in the subject of Labour Law - I of Universidad de Antofagasta and was developed under the methodology called problem-based Learning (ABP in Spanish). ABP promotes cooperative learning by simulating a labour demand situation, where class group is divided between plaintiffs, defendants and court. Each group must assign roles and functions, even the hearing.
