Theoretical methods were used: analytical-synthetic and inductive-deductive and empirical: documentary analysis, interviews with teachers of the subject and participatory techniques. The proposed instrument was evaluated according to the criteria of specialists.<br /><strong>Results:</strong> a rubric was made in correspondence with the system of main skills to be mastered declared in the program of the subject.
