Abstract

This paper describes how the technique of Problem-based Learning has been implemented among fifth semester undergraduate students enrolled in civil procedural law at the University of the Isthmus, Mexico. Based on a legal problem, we describe how all the stages of a trial are carried out in order to finally reach a final judgment; a process in which teamwork and an active student’s participation are indispensable. In addition, the student’s views on the application of this methodology in the learning process are explained.
