SERRANO-GUZMAN, María Fernanda; PEREZ RUIZ, Diego Darío; GUZMAN ARIAS, Diego Alejandro  and  FORERO SARMIENTO, Juan Carlos. Modelo Físico de Acuífero: su implementación para un curso de aguas subterráneas. Cienc. docencia tecnol. [online]. 2014, n.48, pp.209-223. ISSN 1851-1716.

The main goal of this project was to develop a physical model aimed to facilitate the implementation of an Integrated Pedagogical Approach (IPA) in the Groundwater course at the Civil Engineering Department. A collaborative effort was made between professors and students during the design and construction of an aquifer two-dimensional physical model using resources available in college context. The results of building as an educational tool and the interaction with the physical model made easier for the students the understanding of theory and its relationship with the groundwater distribution and transport phenomena. Moreover, the design and dimensioning of the physical model allowed the professor to develop learning tasks focused on the surface water-groundwater interaction.

Keywords : Hydraulics; Aquifer; Physical model.
