| Sumario: | Society demands that new strategies for learning processes put a greater focus on the students. Thus, new methods must be implemented in higher education studies, leaving guided learning, which is evaluated at the end of the course. The high percentage of abandonment of university studies calls for the implementation of teaching systems in which students are the main actors of the learning processes, under the guidance of the faculty. Moreover, a continuous assessment of students would help to increase student motivation by the continuous feedback of their effort as the course is underway. This work collects the results of different experiences carried out in three different degrees in the University of Seville (Mechanical Engineering, Chemistry and Materials Engineering). These experiences follow a methodology based on case studies, which finally motivated students in every course analysed and promoted the obtainment of higher marks. |
