A system of tasks for the increase in interest in the study of the Cuban Art subject.

Abstract

The motivation of the students and therefore, the interest in the study are necessary factors for the successful development of the Teaching-Learning Process. Due to the fact that there is little interest toward the study of the subject Cuban Art by students of courses by meetings of the career Social Communication at the University of Havana, it was decided to develop a system of tasks for the increase in interest in the study of this subject. Surveys were applied to professors and students of the University Subsidiary No. I, as well as observations to classes and other instruments. It was also carried out a consultation with specialists which were evaluated with the coefficient of concordance Kendall (W) to assess the proposal. The diagnosis carried out showed that the general level of interest toward the study of the subject in teachers (6.3 ) and students (6.0 ) results were nearby, located in the middle category, and that the students are among the stages of development of the interest and desire to know cognitive interest. Evaluations of specialists may be taken as group responses with a W= 0.813814 and p=0.00 being statistically significant. The results obtained show that the proposed Task System contributes to the increase in interest in the study of the Cuban Art and to the achievement of better results in the process of assimilation of the students.
