Application Of Active Methodologies In A University Subject

Abstract

[EN] The European Higher Education Area (EHEA) implies the transmission of an educational model centered on teaching, towards a model centered on the autonomous learning of the student. Therefore, traditional subjects, for their adaptation to this EHEA, must be adapted with participatory practices for the achievement of the new objectives, and taking into account that the students must acquire a series of capacities, that, in general, had not been imparted or evaluated previously.

This kind of capacities could be, for example, the capacity of work in group, the capacity of oral presentations making, solving problems, etc.

In this environment, concepts as "cooperative learning", "group activities" and "group work techniques" are getting more and more important each time.

The present work explains the different techniques used in the subject "Integrated Information Systems in Industrial Companies" of the "Degree in Industrial Organization Engineer" with the purpose of motivation, self-learning and improving the development of competences by the student, including some of them of transversal type, as, for example, the capacity for group work or oral presentation.
