Synopsis

The present book “Active Learning Strategies in Higher Education. Application in BSc and MSc Degrees of the Faculty of Chemistry at the University of Barcelona” summarizes the results of the institutional project aiming at promoting teaching quality at the Faculty of Chemistry of the University of Barcelona, the so-called RIMDA-Chemistry Project. The project and methodological approach followed is fully described in Chapter 1 (Institutional project to promote teaching quality at the University of Barcelona’s Faculty of Chemistry). As described in the chapter, the RIMDA-Chemistry Project aims to consolidate and promote teaching quality in the Faculty of Chemistry, with the objective of integrating teacher training and teaching innovation in the context of subjects in the area of Chemistry. The subsequent chapters of the book describe in detail the implementations of the active learning lines. These chapters illustrate how active learning strategies were applied to undergraduate and master's degree compulsory and elective subjects. The application of learner-centered methodologies remains a challenge, as most teachers and students are accustomed to traditional teaching. As a final main message, active learning strategies must transcend the limited scope of the activities of a teaching innovation group and be incorporated as a consolidated teaching methodology in undergraduate and master's degree curricula.
