Abstract
Estudiantes entre 15 y 18 años de los colegios de las islas San Cristóbal y Santa Cruz (Galápagos, Ecuador) realizan actividades de monitoreo e investigación de las Tortugas Gigantes endémicas durante 4 días de campamento. La experiencia queda integrada bajo un modelo constructivista de aprendizaje basado en la indagación y utiliza la ciencia aplicada a la investigación de campo para ayudar a los estudiantes a desarrollar competencias básicas de alfabetización ambiental y científica. Los participantes adquieren conocimientos sobre la ecología de las islas Galápagos y desarrollan habilidades, disposiciones y prácticas favorables hacia la conservación de este Patrimonio Natural de la Humanidad. Mediante una prueba de pretest y postest se miden los conocimientos y actitudes de partida de los jóvenes y se analizan las diferencias tras su paso por el programa observándose que existen ganancias notorias.
