Teaching methodologies
Teaching methodologies
Pedagogical practices will be mediated by I nformation and C ommunication T echnologies, using computers and/or mobile devices. Students will be exposed to interactive resources such as quizzes. Learning based on problem-solving will be promoted, in which students, guided by the teacher, will have to identify problems and plan and carry out ways of resolution. The aim is to improve the teaching and learning process and provide students with the necessary necessary competences for the challenges currently facing humanity and to increase their motivation towards the motivation in relation to the course.
