Item Poster “European higher education: a comparative analysis to evaluate the pedagogical training of professors and to investigate the different models developed by universities” in TEEM 2018(Grupo GRIAL, 2019-01-09) Rivetta, M. S.The TEEM 2018 Conference was held in Salamanca (Spain) from October 24 to October 26, 2018. The Doctoral Consortium track was organized as a poster session. This is the poster corresponding to the paper “European higher education: a comparative analysis to evaluate the pedagogical training of professors and to investigate the different models developed by universities”. Recently there is a lot of interest and emphasis on university teachers’ training and their certification. This is mainly connected to the strong implication of professors’ competences and to the quality of the higher education which, in turn, have a direct relationship with the changes that the universities have experienced since the Bologna Plan. This Plan has impacted the history of each institution of higher education. Indeed, in the current period, the worldwide educational systems are making efforts to change their structures and modifying didactic and pedagogical approaches. It is therefore essential to consider the changes and the challenges of the teaching staff. The aim of this research is to compare and evaluate the pedagogical training of university professors as well as to investigate the different models that each university developed to implement its version of pedagogical training.Item Poster “Utilizing technological ecosystems to support graduate students in their practicum experiences” in TEEM 2018(Grupo GRIAL, 2019-01-09) Tinoco-Giraldo, H.The TEEM 2018 Conference was held in Salamanca (Spain) from October 24 to October 26, 2018. The Doctoral Consortium track was organized as a poster session. This is the poster corresponding to the paper “Utilizing technological ecosystems to support graduate students in their practicum experiences”. This article (which form part of a doctoral thesis) explores mentoring that uses 21st century technologies and its implications for learning. The paper outlines how mentoring, enabled by technology, supports the growth of students and their social, academic and practical dimensions through the creation of informal partnerships with mentors. Additionally, it describes how online mentoring assists learners on their path towards an academic practicum semester and which components of online mentoring they need to apply. Given this educational and social context, a mentoring program may improve the skills of future professionals in the field of marketing by improving and stimulating the acquisition of transversal competencies with the support of other specialists and students in the same field of training. The program is intended for students of the fifth and sixth semester of the Marketing Program of the University of Manizales (Colombia). To do this, we propose a pre-post, quasi-experimental study linking different instruments for collection of information using quantitative and qualitative methods. Furthermore, this ongoing mentoring program in its various forms is attractive to the educational field as well as to corporate businesses that have acknowledged the potential import and efficiency of online mentoring programs. When the study is applied, its characteristics, responsibilities and practices will be also discussed, highlighting the analysis, design, development and evaluation to improve the process.
