El enfoque de enseñanza-aprendizaje impulsado desde el Espacio Europeo de Educación Superior (EEES) incorpora una nueva forma de concebir la educación universitaria, donde el alumnado asume un papel principal en su aprendizaje. A su vez, implica una revalorización de la tarea docente y de la acción tutorial para reforzar el proceso formativo y el desarrollo integral de los alumnos y alumnas universitarios/as. Este trabajo tiene como objetivo conocer la opinión del alumnado acerca de los elementos relevantes en el uso de las tutorías académicas con el fin de identificar sus necesidades y mejorar la acción tutorial. En el diseño del estudio se adopta un enfoque descriptivo a partir de un cuestionario dirigido a estudiantes universitarios, que incluye preguntas relativas a su comportamiento y actitud personalante las tutorías, a la eficacia de las mismas, a su grado de utilización, y a la comunicación y relación establecida con el profesorado en dicho proceso. Los resultados, obtenidos a partir de una muestra de 322 estudiantes del campus de Teruel de la Universidad de Zaragoza, muestran cuatro aspectos relacionados con la autoconfianza del alumnado, la utilidad percibida, la motivación personal y el ahorro económico y/o de tiempo que supone el uso de las tutorías académicas. Si bien el grado de utilización de las mismas resulta moderado, es preciso destacar el valor que el alumnado otorga a la acción tutorial como estímulo para afrontar el trabajo requerido para superar la materia, así como para optimizar su tiempo de estudio. The teaching-learning process promoted by the European Higher Education Area (EHEA) calls for a new approach in which the student is the main actor of his/her learning. This implies an increase in the value of the teaching task, in general, and tutoring in particular. Tutoring reinforces the training process and the integral development of students. The main objective  of this study is to examine the opinion of university students about the use of academic tutoring in order to identify their needs and improve tutorial action. In the design of the study, the students were given a questionnaire to survey their personal attitudes and behavior toward tutorials, the extent to which they used tutorials and their effectiveness, and the level of communication and the relationship established with the teacher in the tutorials. The results, obtained from a sample of 322 students at the University of Zaragoza, Campus of Teruel, reveal four key points related to students’ self-confidence, perceived utility of the use of tutorials, personal motivation and financial and/or time cost (saving) that the students gain by attending tutorials. Although university students make only moderate use of tutorials, they emphasize the value of the tutorials as a stimulus to face the work required to pass a subject, as well as to optimize their study time.

University students, as a result of their lifestyles, represent a section of the population that is most likely to adopt sedentary behaviours. The aim of the present study was to analyse the determining factors dictating the performance of physical activity as well as sedentary behaviour among university students. A total of 608 students (64.6% women) from the University of Santiago de Compostela (Spain) were selected by stratified random sampling to take part in the study, which involved completing a questionnaire on lifestyle and physical activity. Of the participating students, 69.6% indicated that they performed physical activity; the main reasons given were to maintain fitness and for health, while a lack of time and laziness were the principal reasons given for abandoning or not taking up physical exercise. Significant associations were established between not doing physical activity and the time exposed to screens, time studying, feeling low and smoking; on the other hand, associations could be seen between doing physical activity and the participation of relatives (parents, mothers, partners, older siblings and friends) in physical activity, as well as a positive sense of satisfaction relating to physical education taught in schools. In conclusion, most of the university students did some physical activity, which was associated with less sedentary behaviour, while the influence of school physical education and of the habits of relatives played an important role.
