Cooperative Learning as the
instructional method
•
Positive interdependence
Team members are obliged to rely on one another to achieve their common goal
•
Individual accountability
All students in a group are held accountable for doing their share of the work and
for mastery of all of the content to be learned
•
Face-to-face promotive interaction
Group members providing one another with feedback, challenging one another’s
conclusions and reasoning, and teaching and encouraging one another
• Appropriate use of collaborative skills
Students are encouraged and helped to develop and practice skills in
communication, leadership, decision-making, conflict management, and other
aspects of effective teamwork
•
Regular self-assessment of group functioning
Team members periodically assess what they are doing well as a team and what 14
they need to work on for functioning more effectively in the future
A typical 2-hour group work session
Up to 15 minutes
Questions from previous sessions or
exercises
Up to 15
minutes
30 minutes
Introduction of new concepts or materials
(generally, the problem to be designed)
Up to 15 minutes
30 minutes
15 minutes
Group work for revising concepts and
planning exercises
Questions, discussion and general
orientations
Group work for developing exercises
Conclusions and planning for the studentdirected sessions outside the classroom

Showcase ePortfolio
An ePortfolio organised according the subject’s cross-curricular skills to
show your achievements (http://electronicportfolios.com/balance)
Table of contents
1. Course, purpose, audience and structure
2. A list of hardware/software tools and laboratory equipment and examples on the way you’ve been using them
3. Work samples and reflection for the cross-curricular skills
1. 3rd language (English)
1. An active reading of a paper or a book unit
2. A written assignment in English
3. Exam solution
2. Team work
1. Learning an electronic design automation (EDA) tool in group
2. An example of a group assignment
3. Oral and written communication
1. A concept prepared to learn the design flow for a digital circuit
2. A peer-reviewed written assignment
3. An oral presentation in class
4. Self-directed learning/project management
1. Example of a project organisation and development
2. Example of a unit or lesson studied autonomously
. General reflection and conclusions
An excellent way for showing evidence of what you’ve learnt

Student assessment
Assessment is not a mechanism for verifying
student knowledge, but an stimulus to guarantee
that (motivated) students will do the group tasks
which lead them to learn the content and skills
Assessment is another learning activity integrated
in the course dynamics  ePortfolio
Every piece of work counts for the final grade
• Final exams are no longer needed

 The EX will have a preliminary group grade. In order to get its
final grade, students have to pass the corresponding IT. If a
given student fail its IT, its EX will be graded with a “4”.
 At week 9 there will be another opportunity to pass or improve
IT1 and IT2. IT3 and 4 can be assessed again at week 14.
