Teaching of notarial law through virtual campuses from a constructivist approach in semi-face-to-face education

Abstract

Notarial law is the autonomous branch of public law that is responsible for studying the notarial institution and the theory of the public instrument, which highlights within its content, the analysis of the essential functions of the notary, the elements of public faith, notarial responsibility, and the rules for the preparation of public documents. Due to the precision of the topics addressed, the teaching of notarial law within the Faculty of Law of the Autonomous University of Querétaro has historically developed from in-person attendance and the use of traditional educational strategies; however, it is noted that currently, it is advisable to implement innovative didactics that are consistent with the new technologies available to us and the needs reflected by the students who have ventured into bimodal education. In this sense, the hypothesis that this author supports in this work lies in the need to use virtual campuses in the teaching of notarial law from a constructivist approach in blended education, which will allow active participation using resources and digital tools, placing the student at the center of the teaching-learning process.
