The results, the use of these methodologies not only had a significant promotion in the positive emotions and self-efficacy beliefs, but also better learning outcomes were achieved by the students following this methodology. The results obtained in this research demonstrate that following an appropriate learning methodology in a distance program could contribute to reduce the main handicaps of these programs. | Journal of Technology and Science Education JOTSE, 2019 – 9(2): 217-227 – Online ISSN: 2013-6374 – Print ISSN: 2014-5349 EFFECTS OF ACTIVE LEARNING METHODOLOGIES ON THE STUDENTS’ EMOTIONS, SELF-EFFICACY BELIEFS AND LEARNING OUTCOMES IN A SCIENCE DISTANCE LEARNING COURSE Jin Su Jeong1 , David González-Gómez2 , Florentina Cañada-Cañada2 Alejandrina Gallego-Picó3 , Juan Carlos Bravo3 , 1 Universidad Politécnica de Madrid (Spain) 2 Universidad de Extremadura (Spain) 3 Universidad Nacional de Educación a Distancia (Spain) , dggomez@, flori@, agallego@, Received September 2018 Accepted November 2018 Abstract Distance education programs in higher education are gaining popularity mostly due to the flexibility of the formative programs to fit all the requirements that brick-and-mortar educational institutions are not able to provide to students. However, quite often these distance programs report feelings of isolation, lack of self-direction and management, and eventual decrease in motivation levels. Thus, the main aim of this research is to assess the effect of following an active learning methodology on the students’ emotions, self-efficacy beliefs and learning outcomes in the context of a distance learning program in an Atmospheric Pollution course. According to the results, the use of these methodologies not only had a significant promotion in the positive emotions and self-efficacy beliefs, but also better learning outcomes were achieved by the students following this methodology. The results obtained in this research demonstrate that following an appropriate learning methodology in a distance program could contribute to reduce the main handicaps of these programs.
