La integración de Competencias Transversales en la Educación Superior en Ingenierías mediante herramientas de e-learning. El caso de la ETSII en la UPV

One of the objectives of Higher Education, increasingly demanded by the labor market, is to guarantee the development of professional, social and ethical skills of students. Making the learning of these type of transversal competences (TC) compatible with the specific competences of the degree in the time frame of the studies, is not an easy task in particular of some of these competences, in engineering profile degrees. For this reason, at the Higher Technical School of Industrial Engineering (ETSII) of the Universitat Politecnica de Valencia (UPV) it has been designed an e-learning platform by the teaching staff, students and employers, coordinated by the Sub- Directorate of Educational Innovation and within the framework of a Project of Innovation and Educational Improvement of the UPV,. This platform allows students to train in TC at their own pace according to their needs and teachers to use methodologies appropriate to their subjects and domain level adapted to the engineering framework. In this way, the platform can be used as a vertical coordination axis between subjects, for the development of TC at the different levels of mastery throughout the ETSII students' studies.
