An experience of educational innovation in engineering education: 10 years promoting the approach by competences in the undergrad

Abstract

This paper describes the experience that has been taking place for several years in the framework of an undergraduate course of Communications and Networks. The professors in charge have been developing a series of pedagogical innovations in line with what is known as a Competency-Based Approach, thus promoting Active and Student-Centered Learning. The results obtained so far, briefly described in this paper, encourage their authors to continue on this path, while they may be valuable for other colleagues concerned about improving their students' learnings.
