The Personal tutorial guidance sessions in the framework of the teaching-learning field of the Bologna process: University of Minho (first cycle) courses students’ perceptions

摘要

The Bologna Process defends the adoption of a higher education in teaching-learningmethodologies that – in contraposition to the previous model based on the transmission of knowledge, which for being essentially theoretical, gives the student a passive role in the knowledge construction process – allows a (pro) active, autonomous and practical learning, where the student acquires and develops his competences. The personal tutorial guidance sessions are included in the teaching contact hours.This abstract presents a study about the University of Minho (first cycle) CoursesStudents’ perceptions of the personal tutorial guidance sessions’ relevance in the scope of the learning-teaching process, so as to confirm if the implementation/implantation of thecommonly called tutorial (type) education, as an approach to an active, autonomous andpractical learning, is sensed by the learners themselves
