Abstract

Throughout humanity history, in different cultures and social sectors, one or another way of adopting habits, attitudes, knowledge and skills has stood out to insert themselves more efficiently into the world around them. In this scenario, the competency-based education modality is acquiring relevance in seeking to train citizens capable of facing the demands of work, social and personal life, in a changing and demanding world. It is known that the role of the teacher within this modality has been subjected to exhaustive dissertations. However, the predominant role of the student has not been treated with the same particularity. In this article, the objective is to describe the role of the student in the competency-based approach, through a qualitative, documentary study. It is noted that an active student and protagonist in their learning process is a central element to advance towards a more relevant and effective education, in the training of citizens capable to impact their communities positively.
