Description
Summary:Research on the development of competencies with PBL has grown considerably in recent years, but its consequences on psychosocial processes such as creativity, peer leadership and team cohesion in group work have not been investigated. In this paper we also analyze the differences in the competency level of 16 groups of 4 students of the Social Psychology of Sport subject of the Degree in Physical Activity and Sport Sciences as a result of their participation in a PBL methodology evaluated with rubrics. The instruments used in this experience are divided into two groups: the evaluation of competences and the evaluation of related psychological variables, the creative capacity of the sports leader, creativity and practical creativity in the workplace and in the organization) and group cohesion (version Spanish reduced GEQ). The results show an increase in all competences, although in creativity and in planning there are no significant improvements. The only psychosocial variable that has significantly improved has been Empathy and Leadership Responsibility, although  the size of the effect is small. Conclusions include recommendations on the use of BPA and evaluation through rubrics.
