Methods and organization

ICE_UPC

 

Here you will find papers, seminars, books and many other references where most of our work on adapting the subjects to the Bologna process is listed.   

  The basics on the engineering area

  1. Education Paradigm (2003)

  2. An outstanding and illuminating report on "Engineering for a Changing World" (2008) University of Michigan Engineering

  This is one of the books more referenced on cooperative learning methodology. Many of the ideas and concepts from this book were used to transform the way our subjects are taught. .

  1. D. W. Johnson, R. T. Johnson, K. A. Smith, “Active learning: Cooperation in the College Classroom,” Interaction Book Company, Edina, MN, 1991. Web dels professors D. W. Johnson, R. T. Johnson (www.co-operation.org)

  2. Another reference on cooperative learning

  3. Many other books on teaching and learning.

  4. A paper from Prof. R. Felder which can be used as an introduction the the CL methodology and its efficiency to learn professional skills.

 

  Higher Education Academy in the UK and their subject centre in Engineering. An outstanding reference.

  

  These papers from professor R. M. Felder (North Carolina State University, USA), explain why the CL and PBL are methodologies very suitable for developing cross-curricular skills like the ones found in documents like  ABET, criterion #3. They are very useful to adapt and redesign our teaching to the EHEA requirements.

  1. R. M. Felder, R. Brent, Designing and Teaching Courses to Satisfy the ABET Engineering Criteria, January 2003, Journal of Engineering Education, pp. 7-25.

  2. R. M. Felder, "Engineering Education in Five Years (or Sooner)." A streaming video of a seminar given by Dr. Felder at Penn State University--roughly an hour including questions and responses.

  3. M. J. Prince, R. M. Felder, "Inductive teaching and learning methods: definitions, comparisons, and research bases", also another link). And also another link from the same authors: "The many faces of inductive teaching and learning"

 

  Aquest és el grup de la UPC on s’apleguen les persones interessades a desenvolupar aquest nou mètode docent:

  1.  Grup d’interès en l’Aprenentatge Cooperatiu (GIAC),  Institut de Ciències de l’Educació (ICE)

- Aquest grup ha rebut la Menció Especial Honorífica del 9è Premi a la Qualitat en la Docència Universitària de la UPC

- Aquest grup ha rebut la distinció Jaume Vicens Vives a la qualitat docent universitària atorgada per la Generalitat de Catalunya

- Aquest grup ha rebut la Menció Especial Honorífica a la innovació docent de la Universidad Europea de Madrid (UEM)

  1. This is a course where most of our concepts are organised to produce a subject systematic instructional design.

  2. Aquesta referència està avalada per professor Miguel Valero i descriu la problemàtica del treball en grup cooperatiu:  Aspectos esenciales para el trabajo en equipo 

  3. Accediu a la plataforma RIMA RIMA de l'ICE-UPC

  4. Aquest és el grup de la UAB que desenvolupa l'aprenentatge basat en problemes (PBL)

 

Other old documents from ol subjects where many innovations where proposed and experimented :

  Documents generals de referència per estructurar ED en el context AC. Actualment s’està treballant per homologar l'ED amb el pla pilot EEES de l'EPSC (segurament els documents potser són adaptables a altres assignatures)

  Altres assignatures de l'àrea on també s’implementa l’aprenentatge basat en l'AC: Sistemes Electrònics Digitals i Sistemes Digitals Reconfigurables
