Sumario:This work reports on the classroom experience regarding the teaching of a general physics course for prospective biology and math teachers. In order to keep the learning cycle of successful active learning teaching strategies, a few of the working sheets of the teaching strategy Interactive Lecture Demonstrations were adapted as homework assignments based on the use of PhET simulations. In this approach the in-class work based on peer interactions and experimental setups provided with on-line graphical representations of well-designed experiments was replaced with the homeworks that used PhET simulations instead of experimental equipment, while the full classroom social interactions were replaced by remote collaboration of pair of students. In this work the detail structure of this learning approach is informed, together with the results of three students´ opinion questionaries.
