Abstract:
The evolution of the professional and environmental conditions is forcing the university education
to a change in the teaching-learning process. This implies a new definition in the roles and
functions of university teachers from whom new ways of educational training should arise. These
days, university teachers are called upon to encourage and facilitate their students? learning. This
new role of the teacher should be to help put the University at the level of the requirements and
possibilities of this era, and those to come as well. In order to make the innovation and the change
real in higher education is essential to start from concepts like ?cooperation and collaboration?
within the teaching staff, between them and in their departments. According to the new use of the
didactic and organizational planning in higher education, this aspect is an aim for the
development of the teaching quality in universities. In higher education, there is an increasing
need of a formation which not only increases the conceptual knowledge of the professionals but
also provides them the instrumental and attitudinal resources required for the professional
development of their tasks. The aim of this paper is to show the work which has been done by a
group of teachers at the Faculty of Educational Sciences and Humanities during four years in the
degree of Educational Psychology. The activities carried out (information stands, sensitization
workshops, leaflets with scientific-technical information, among others) facilitate our students?
apprehension of the basic elements of different subject matters and increase their skills of
analyzing, contrasting, synthesizing, increasing knowledge, debating, etc. and, in addition, they
can confront the need to give an answer ?as a professional- to very different situations taken from
the real world.
