A Spanish colleague with experience of e-learning has just joined us at IER for three months and is keen to participate in our discussions.
Laura has experience of using a LMS in delivery of an e-learning programme on professional pedagogy on Year 5 of a degree for school counsellors that also includes a practicuum.

Hi I´m Laura | Discussion Topic | 3 replies | 10-July-2006 | Laura Alonso Díaz |
I´m teaching at the University of Extremadura in a subjetc related to counselling.
I’m glad to take part in this discussion forum.
I’m a phd student who works as a research and teaching assistant in the University of Extremadura.
In fact, I teach in the degree of Phsyco-pedagogy, one of the future tasks of people who study this degree is counselling students of secondary school, so we must teach them how to guide students.
The kind of training of this degree is mostly academic, but it has also a practical component; that is the subject that we’ve called “Practicum”.
In fact, during the forth year of the degree the “Practicum” consists in going to an institution or company for one month. In the fifth and final year of the degree students should go to the same institution or company once a week, where they will be practising what they learn in the theory.
Every student has a supervisor in the institution and also in the university. Those supervisors should be in touch, so that during the forth year the students, with the help of the advisors, will design a project for the Institution. Finally, the objective is that during the fifth year they will develop the project previously designed.
Best regards
