Methodology
The methodology of this course is based on different formats:
- Lectures: Expository class sessions based on the explanation of the teaching staff in which all participants attend.
- These sessions will be interspersed with workshops, case studies or experiences to achieve a better adoption of skills among students.
- Experiences: Face-to-face sessions within the subjects where an invited specialist presents his experiences and projects to the participants.
- Workshops: Face-to-face format in small work groups.
- They are practical sessions of the subjects. In these sessions, situations are recreated to facilitate the implementation of the contents worked on in a more theoretical way.
- Case study: Dynamics that part of the study of a case, which serves to contextualize the participant in a specific situation.
- The training program includes participation of participants in classes with other TecnoCampus students.
- Individual tutorials.
- Group tutorials.
Regarding the teaching material, we will use materials that will prioritize the most relevant points to promote meaningful and functional learning.
The evaluation process will take into account quantitative and qualitative elements in all modules. The achievement of work habits, such as punctuality, attendance and regular work, will be taken into account, as well as the starting point of the participants to achieve an improvement in skills.
Special emphasis will be placed on the development of social skills, across all modules.
Person-centered learning. During the learning process, individual differences will be taken into account, with the aim of adapting the content and methodology to the needs of each participant. The learning process focuses on each student.
Participation in the university community. The course is complemented by university life activities and a mentoring program in which TecnoCampus students participate.
Some of the activities will be the following:
- Act of inauguration of the academic program and presentation of the different commissions.
- Participation in the International Volunteer Day which will take place on 5 December.
- Participation in activities organized by student committees, among which we highlight:
- The Colla Castellera Passarells, Buddy Program, Cultural and Festival Committee and the Healthy and Sustainable Campus Committee.
- Graduation ceremony and delivery of diplomas.
TecnoCampus will promote the “Referents” Program, a program of student volunteers who will act as mentors to the participants during the duration of the specialization course with the aim of promoting their inclusion in the university community.
