Abstract

The present work is based on three aspects. Firstly, there was a description of a problem that directly affects the development and progression of competencies required of law students, which turns out to be a weakness in achieving the graduation profile. Secondly, there was an exploration of the didactic option of the ABI as an alternative to developing skills in law students. Also, it explored the advantages of ABI to meet the required competencies of law education. A systematization of the selected information was conducted. Finally, there were a description and presentation of observations extracted from experience. The implementation of this methodology outside of a traditional classroom context involved extracurricular workshops held at the Law School of the Santo Tomás Antofagasta University. Findings suggested that ABI as a methodological strategy can be applied in extracurricular contexts with interesting advances that become evident throughout time.
