The Universidad Industrial de Santander developed in 2015 a novel methodology adopting Just-in-Time Teaching, active learning and mediated learning strategies for classical mechanics (Physics 1), electromagnetism (Physics 2) and, waves and particles (Physics 3) laboratories, with a focus on competencies for research formation, aimed at basic cycle engineering students. In 2017, the same methodology was implemented in three Universidad Industrial de Santander regional headquarters located in Malaga, Barbosa and Socorro cities. Initially, a first visit was made to recognize materials and equipment available in each regional headquarter, for the creation of virtual learning classrooms in Moodle platform. Then, in 2018 during a second visit, students and teachers who participated in the process were interviewed and the main difficulties and opportunities that they detected in the implementation were collected, thus allowing the action plan creation that contributes to the continuous improvement in the laboratory experiences.
