El aprendizaje virtual se destaca como una oportunidad para el desarrollo del aprender a aprender, debido a la producción acelerada de conocimiento, el desarrollo de las tecnologías de la información y la comunicación, los cambios en la sociedad y en la salud, como el aislamiento social por la pandemia mundial. Pero en nuestro país no se utilizan herramientas adecuadas para la educación virtual, lo que pudo ser ocasionado por una ley universitaria que obliga a la formación presencial, arrastrando costumbres y herramientas a la formación de posgrado. El objetivo de este ensayo es justificar que la forma óptima de evaluar y mejorar el aprendizaje de posgrado es mediante la redacción de un ensayo argumentativo, porque en él el estudiante además de desarrollar sus habilidades de redacción expone los argumentos que sustentan su respuesta a un problema con una serie de información conectada y explicada con referencias obtenidas de bases de datos académicas de alto nivel y el apoyo de herramientas informáticas.
