The study of the environment as a teaching strategy in higher education

Abstract

The fundamental elements listed in the article are higher education; University pedagogy; Interdisciplinarity; Higher education strategies. To elucidate the use of this strategy, a field trip was used in order to allow the students to understand the natural and social context of the place. When choosing a teaching strategy the teacher should consider the individualities and the specific conditions to the difficulties of the students, as well as each in didactic practice. The study of the environment has proved to be an effective tool to be used in higher education, but it is of common interest that the students have contact with the theoretical content prior to insertion in the place, allowing a connection between the technical and theoretical part.
