puta lot of effort in reducing the dropout rate of part-time engineering students, particularly focusingon dropout that occurs during the freshmen year. With this objective in mind and knowing that thestudents’ experience with the first calculus course is an important variable that may lead a studentto abandon his career plan, we decided to implement active learning methodologies [6] to teachthat course to part-time students. As [7] states, active learning methodologies may directlyinfluence social integration and indirectly affect the student’s dropout decision.In this paper, we introduce what we call Guided-Lecture Team Based Learning (GL-TBL), whichis a learning methodology whose core relies on the well-known Team Based Learning (TBL
