The information collected was systematized using ATLAS.ti 9 software and analyzed using the content analysis technique to generate semantic networks and word clouds that defined the conditioning factors of the student body's statements, which allowed the design, execution and pre- and post-application analysis of the aforementioned technique, called BETWEENMINES. Changes were observed with respect to the purpose of this research, evidencing a strengthening of critical thinking in relation to the understanding of sustainable development, its pillars and its connection with mining activities in the territory. |
