Resumen Esta revisión sistemática examina el impacto del aprendizaje cooperativo en estudiantes universitarios durante el periodo 2019-2025. Bajo la metodología PRISMA, se seleccionaron 20 estudios indexados en Scopus, SciELO y Latindex 2.0, centrados en tres dimensiones principales: habilidades sociales, interdependencia positiva e interacción estimuladora. Los hallazgos, sustentados en teorías como la autodeterminación, el interaccionismo simbólico y la zona de desarrollo próximo, evidencian mejoras significativas en la participación activa, la cohesión grupal y el desarrollo socioemocional. Asimismo, el aprendizaje cooperativo potencia competencias transversales del siglo XXI, tales como trabajo en equipo, comunicación efectiva y liderazgo, mostrando adaptabilidad a entornos virtuales e híbridos, incluso durante la pandemia. Los estudios revisados destacan su eficacia para promover la corresponsabilidad, el pensamiento crítico y la construcción colaborativa del conocimiento. No obstante, se identificaron desafíos en su implementación, entre ellos la resistencia docente a cambios metodológicos y la necesidad de capacitación en estrategias cooperativas. En este sentido, la evidencia sugiere que su adopción institucional requiere innovación curricular, formación docente continua y apoyo tecnológico. En conclusión, esta revisión aporta bases para el diseño de políticas educativas que prioricen modelos pedagógicos inclusivos, alineados con las demandas laborales actuales y la responsabilidad social universitaria.
Abstract This systematic review examines the impact of cooperative learning on university students during the period 2019-2025. Using the PRISMA methodology, 20 studies indexed in Scopus, SciELO, and Latindex 2.0 were selected, focusing on three main dimensions: social skills, positive interdependence, and stimulating interaction. The findings, supported by theories such as self-determination, symbolic interactionism, and the zone of proximal development, show significant improvements in active participation, group cohesion, and socio-emotional development. Likewise, cooperative learning enhances 21st-century cross-cutting skills, such as teamwork, effective communication, and leadership, showing adaptability to virtual and hybrid environments, even during the pandemic. The studies reviewed highlight its effectiveness in promoting shared responsibility, critical thinking, and collaborative knowledge construction. However, challenges in its implementation were identified, including teacher resistance to methodological changes and the need for training in cooperative strategies. In this regard, the evidence suggests that its institutional adoption requires curricular innovation, ongoing teacher training, and technological support. In conclusion, this review provides a basis for the design of educational policies that prioritize inclusive pedagogical models, aligned with current labor demands and university social responsibility.
