Teacher Coordination at University: Analysis of the Current Situation
Abstract
The Bologna process embodies a new model
of university education that is bringing
changes to the Spanish university system.
The adoption of the European Higher Education
Area (EHEA) framework calls for adjustments
involving education authorities,
governance bodies, teaching and nonteaching
staff, students and the community
and overall society. Challenges raised
by that model include the move from a
culture of individualism, professional isolation
and competition to one of sharing
and working together. This paper aims to
highlight, on the one hand, the importance
of coordination as one of the key
elements around which the new degrees
should revolve for the purpose of functioning
in line with the Bologna guidelines.
On the other hand, it seeks to analyse the
current situation in Spanish universities.
