Las TICs aplicadas a la enseñanza universitaria del EEES

Abstract

This paper outlines the background of a long term project developed by the University of Cantabria during eight consecutive years, in order to make the Information and Communications Technologies (ICTs) available to Spanish academic community. The development of a European higher education space, and the adaptations that this implies, and demands some changes within the teaching methods and planning, where the ICTs has a prominent role for both students and teachers. E-learning platforms, complemented with nonpresential communication technologies, like videoconferencing and a constant formation of all the involved sectors, will be the key for a successful convergence of the imminent European Higher Education Area (EHEA).
