Description
La incorporación de la inteligencia artificial (IA) en los procesos educativos no constituye un fenómeno neutral, sino una transformación sociotécnica que reconfigura las formas en que los estudiantes aprenden, regulan su pensamiento y afrontan situaciones problemáticas. En este marco, el presente artículo tuvo como objetivo analizar, desde la perspectiva de la educación crítica, la influencia de la IA en los procesos metacognitivos implicados en la resolución de problemas. Para ello, se realizó una revisión sistemática de 25 estudios publicados entre 2022 y 2026, sustentada en un análisis cualitativo mediante una matriz manual de síntesis. Los hallazgos se organizaron en tres dimensiones analíticas: andamiaje adaptativo, interacción epistémica y regulación ejecutiva. Los resultados muestran que la IA puede fortalecer el Aprendizaje Basado en Problemas (ABP) cuando su integración pedagógica promueve la validación crítica de la información, la toma de decisiones reflexiva y la soberanía cognitiva del estudiante. Se concluye que estas tecnologías desplazan el ABP tradicional hacia un modelo de indagación híbrida, en el que el uso de herramientas inteligentes exige mayores niveles de conciencia metacognitiva, de modo que su función consista en potenciar el pensamiento y no en sustituir la actividad intelectual del sujeto.
