Collaborative learning and pandemic situation with online teaching. The experience in Management Skills for Engineers

Abstract

[EN] In the subject of Management Skills for Engineers in the last 2020/21 academic year, it was necessary to modify radically the full teaching scheme. Given that the number of students was small and that they already knew the conceptual management basis, this subject had traditionally been developed through reverse teaching and carrying out cases and group works in a collaborative learning context. COVID and the need of structuring teaching and tutorials based on TEAMS, which the UPV has standardized, raised an important turning point and decision: moving to a traditional teaching methodology or keeping the one used until now adapting it to take advantage of the potential of TEAMS and the rest of the UPV's applications. In this communication the theoretical foundations, the planning of the subject and the most significant results are summarized.
