Traditional learning versus bologna education: coassessment and roles assignment, an experience of innovation in university teaching

Manuel Platero-Jaime and Sonia

Abstract

This project aims to strengthen some students' skills through a dynamic learning project aligned with the Bologna methodology. The main objective of this pilot-project is to provide the basics of the course to the student at the same time as developing different skills that they will have to use in the labour market. This teaching experience presents a co-assessment system linked to the assignment of different roles for the students. These characteristics provide an experience that is appealing and efficient for students’ learning and skills development. This research offers a comparison between the Bologna methodology applied in the pilot-project and the traditional teaching methodology used in the same course during the previous academic year. This paper also provides some results and conclusions based on the Bologna Process and its implementation.
