Active and Participatory Methodologies in Higher Education

Nenhum professor associado a este curso.

Scientific Area

The program is offered fully remotely, lasting 4 weeks, structured into 4 successive missions organized according to the flipped classroom model to illustrate its application.

The missions are goal-oriented, meaning they include an initial program of activities to be completed asynchronously, culminating in the submission of a project related to the mission’s theme and immediately applicable in each participant’s context.

According to the flipped classroom model, each mission concludes with an online synchronous session lasting about 2 hours for the presentation and discussion of projects, deepening of the studied topics, and clarification of questions.

This training program aims to increase the use of active and participatory methodologies in higher education, complementing or serving as an alternative to conventional predominantly lecture-based and expository methods.

Thus, upon completing this program, participants should be able to:

  • Effectively combine synchronous and asynchronous teaching-learning activities according to the flipped classroom model.
  • To design varied, engaging asynchronous teaching-learning programs with an interactive component.
  • Correctly apply participatory techniques in face-to-face classes with both small and large groups.
  • Sequence different asynchronous and synchronous activities according to a progression from more basic to cognitively more complex learning.
  • Use generative artificial intelligence innovatively as a tool to enhance learning.
  • Higher education teachers
