This study is focused on the advantages and disadvantages of using a digital portfolio to improve the learning and evaluation processes in the initial teacher training of 4th-year students in the University of Seville (Spain). One of the interests of this research was to compare the learning capacities perceived by the students to improve their learning process before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. A qualitative, descriptive methodology was applied, identifying the most relevant dimensions, categories and codes for the analysis, management and interpretation of the opinions of the students, with a research triangulation (Cohen’s kappa coefficient) and a coding performed using the ATLAS.ti 8.4 software. The results show that the advantages with greater percentage correspond to the following categories: learning, usefulness of OneDrive, autonomy and evaluation. The greatest disadvantages detected were: time, uncertainty, usefulness of OneDrive and autonomy. There are differences in the perceptions of the students, between before and during the COVID-19 pandemic, about the learning capacities developed with the use of digital portfolio, since they consider that they have acquired more significant learning, greater self-regulation of their learning and greater reflection capacity.

Teaching In Higher Education

ABSTRACTThe following analysis aims to investigate the present and the future of the Ecuadorian university, its relationship to work, citizenship and identity, higher education and learning, knowledge ecologies to link research and teaching in higher education and the pre service education: policies, programs and practices. The information society and knowledge required of citizens better prepared and more committed to the environment in which they live and develop. Aware of this reality, the university must rethink the principles that led to its creation. Moving from theorizing (conceptualization - observation) to the practical (research - reflection – criticality - involvement) valuing and respecting diversity and multiculturalism in tandem to raise awareness on the social responsibility of their knowledge. This rethinking of contemporary university must analyse as proposed by some researchers (Montero, Patricio. 2010) the megas educational trends and challenges for higher education that have implications on key educational decisions related to the relevance and validity of higher education. In particular, for curriculum development, methodologies for both teaching and assessing also the management of teaching. 1.- Globalization marked by the knowledge society. 2.- Training for a highly dynamic interdependent labour structure. 3.- The survival of organizations depends on the knowledge possessed by its staff. 4.- Changes in the design of intelligent behaviour and productivity of people. 5.- Changes on the conception of learning, emphasizing the concern of internal processes of people for learning.RESUMENEl siguiente análisis pretende investigar el presente y el futuro de la universidad ecuatoriana: su vinculación al trabajo, la ciudadanía y la identidad, la enseñanza superior y el aprendizaje, ecologías del conocimiento en cuanto a enlazar la investigación y la docencia en la educación superior, así como el pre servicio de la educación: las políticas, programas y prácticas. La sociedad de la información y el conocimiento requiere de ciudadanos mejor preparados y más comprometidos con el medio en que les toca vivir y desenvolverse. Consciente de esta realidad la universidad debe de replantearse los postulados que la llevaron a su creación. Pasar de la teorización (conceptualización - observación) a la practicidad (inves-tigación – reflexión - criticidad- involucramiento) valorando y respetando la diversidad y la multiculturalidad a la par de concienciar en la responsabilidad social de sus conocimientos. En este replanteo la universidad de hoy debe de analizar, como lo proponen algunos investigadores (Montero, Patricio, 2010) las megas tendencias educativas como desafíos para la educación universitaria que tienen implicaciones en las decisiones educacionales claves vinculadas a la pertinencia y vali-dez de la educación superior. En especial, para el desarrollo curricular, las metodologías tanto para la enseñanza como para la evaluación y para la gestión de la docencia. Cinco son las que se plantean: 1.- La globalización marcada por la sociedad del conocimiento. 2.- Formación para una estructura laboral altamente dinámica e interdependiente. 3.- La super-vivencia de las organizaciones depende centralmente del conocimiento que posee su personal. 4.- Cambios en la concepción de comportamientos inteligentes y la productividad de las personas. 5.- Cambios sobre la concepción del aprendizaje, enfatizando la preocupación de los procesos internos de las personas para el aprendizaje. Contacto principal: [email protected]

Recent studies are focusing on how social networks impact the learning process and how students organize themselves to face collaborative tasks via these networks, as well as their impact on the learning outcomes of the students. In a number of these studies, learning social aspects are analyzed, showing, among other issues of interest, that participating in social networks positively affects students’ self-esteem. In this article it is shown how this applies to the university model being adopted in Europe. Nowadays, the student is limited by the class and by the restricted group of people enrolled in that same university degree. In which way can the university facilitate that students get to each other so that they can find aspects in common and therefore the set of relationships grows? This chapter shows how our university—Universidad de Almería, UAL—globalizes its campus providing access to every student, as well as how this social network is succeeding.

Given the limited number of documents addressing methodological context in higher education with a rigorous approach, this chapter comprises a document drawn up in order to clarify methodological concepts. It emphasizes the importance of the teaching-learning process and the significance of placing the student at the center of all actions. The educator's mission changes from being a mere transmitter of information to being a conductor and organizer of the learning situation. To achieve this, several methods must be combined, requiring a balance between the theoretical and practical classes. Likewise, they can be benefited by carrying out complementary activities. This combination is intended to face the great challenges of higher education in the 21st century, which are driven by changes in the way students learn. The emergence of technologies means that the protagonist in the collective construction of knowledge is the student, responding to their digital and participatory demands.

In the midst of the current technological revolution, there is a thriving conversation about how society should adapt to the future of work taking place in the national media, universities, policy organizations, think tanks, consulting firms and companies. One such model for work and education under consideration is that of the role of higher education in workforce development. How well does a bachelor’s degree prepare an individual for a career in this shifting landscape of work? What is the responsibility of the university to the student – to prepare them for a career? Or to help them build the intellectual framework to build a meaningful life Incorporating the practice and development of 21st century skills into the higher education classroom does not necessarily require a great rethinking of the education model or content delivery. Rather, it could be as simple as encouraging faculty to use proven educational principles such as active learning and group-based learning into the classroom. This would allow students to practice some of the necessary skills such as communication, respect, teamwork, and problem solving into their higher education curriculum.

The objective is to reflect on the teaching-learning process through technological resources in undergraduate courses and how the students of this course perceive their preparation for future teaching with the use of digital artifacts. The methodology used was qualitative with bibliographic review and data analysis from the questionnaire applied with the students of the five courses investigated. The main authors are Cerutti and Giraffa (2015), Kesnki (2003), Pretto and Pinto (2006) and Prensky (2001), who elucidate the use of technologies in the educational environment, the text presents the theoretical reference and analysis of data. As a conclusion, we realize that learning about technologies must be their experiences in the University itself, since even digital natives, academics do not perceive making use of them in their future spaces of teaching.Keywords: Cyberculture.
