Teaching Learning

Since the birth of European Higher Education Area (EHEA), the higher education institutions of European countries have been involved in the complex process of re-designing of their curricula according to the new educational criteria oriented to the convergence of contents and methodologies in teaching university curricula. According to the principles pursued by the so named Bologna process, the present work is focused on the description of experiences accumulated by these authors in adaptation of their courses of manufacturing engineering, as a previous stage to complete re-formulation of study plans for engineering programmes that are taught in Escuela Técnica Superior de Ingeniería Industrial (ETSII) of Universidad Politécnica de Cartagena. The strategies followed for the enhancement of the interest of students towards the theoretical and practical teachings, and the promotion of traverse and specific competences specially associated to these courses are explained in this work, as well as the academic results provided by the new educational methodologies assumed for the teaching-learning process.

Comprehensive Study

AbstractThe Bologna process aims to harmonize European Higher Education. This implies serious changes and challenges for the Legal Higher education institutions and scholars, as this realm of knowledge should now provide skills for the exercise of a legal profession at a transnational level. Law teaching in most institutions simply tried to cope up with the Europeanization process by introducing pale cosmetic changes and therefore not adapting to the European reality and needs. The main objectives are to summarize Bologna’s objectives applied to the teaching/learning of law, assessing various solutions and cases and trying to deliver a ‘best practice’ draft. After a comprehensive study on the implementation of the Bologna process and its results, we will be able to make a critical judgment on the teaching of law. Matter ‘de iure condendo’ proposes education policies that enable a holistic view of the law.

Los cambios en la educación universitaria que propicia el Espacio Europeo de Educación Superior implican nuevas adaptaciones en el proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje ya que el objetivo primordial pasa a ser"aprender a aprender. En este contexto, se necesitan nuevos medios que faciliten el desarrollo de tales cambios, que permitan realizar actividades adicionales a la enseñanza presencial. Así, las nuevas Tecnologías de la Información y la Comunicación constituyen herramientas que posibilitan tales transformaciones. En este sentido, tos Espacios Virtuales de Aprendizaje (EVA) posibilitan la creación de comunidades sociales donde se intercambian conocimientos. Este trabajo se centra en el EVA SICODINET que se ha diseñado en torno a las asignaturas del perfil de Contabilidad de Costes y de Gestión de la Universidad de León. Concretamente se profundiza en la experiencia del seminario en línea (Webinar) sobre hoja electrónica de cálculo celebrado durante tres años, sus características, la metodología seguida, los resultados obtenidos y las lecciones aprendidas con esta iniciativa.<br /><br />The European Higher Education Area has caused changes in higher education, what involves new adaptations in the teaching-learning process because now the main aim is "learn to learn".

This paper analyzes the VLS SICODINET which has been designed around Cost and Management Accounting subjects in the University of León. Specifically the Web-based seminar (Webinar) about spreadsheet is studied in depth: it has been held for three years and its characteristics, the followed methodology, its results and the lessons learnt from this initiative are explained.

The progress so far with the Journal has more than justified the Spirit evoked by the European Bologna Process and the key role played by the Tuning founders and activists in their endeavor to enable Higher Education Institutions to address the challenges of this Century. They have helped contribute to the necessary reforms of the European Higher Education Space. Tuning commenced with aspirations to facilitate student centred learning underpinned by effective pedagogy, stakeholder engagement and the achievement of quality assured competence-based education. What is crucial in the Tuning vision, particularly as it is now literally sharing experience within the global community, is the commitment to avoid uniformity, celebrate diversity, recognize points of convergence and find opportunities to share good practices. In true academic fashion, we must be ever ready for debate and deliberation.Published online: 29 November 2019

Research in the teaching-learning process in Higher Education Institutions is very useful to understand the issues that refer to society and the world around us. Schools should foster researchers' interest in science, as well as prepare them to envision the various applications and responsibilities of a researcher. This mission must be fulfilled from the first years of study, in all areas of knowledge, especially in the area of health. The development of scientific activity must adapt to the changes imposed by scientific, technological and innovation development. Several factors influence this process that must be analyzed. Research is considered the basis for obtaining knowledge, which will allow us to understand and find solutions to the life and health problems of the population.

In 2008, the Academic Cooperation Association, a Brussels-based European association specialized in the internationalization of higher education, has now come out with a study about English-Taught Programmes in European Higher Education. The study is based on surveys of 2,200 higher education institutions in 27 European countries where English is not the domestic language of instruction. This article presents the key findings from the original publication.
