Material in video as a support in math courses in telecommunication engineering

Abstract

The new defined degrees in our university follow the recommendations of the European Higher Education Area (Bologna Declaration). Among these recommendations, our teaching work should be focused on student work and learning student process. That is why our proposal is devoted to achieve a more active classes supported by the continuous work of the students. We propose our students to solve certain exercises and once they have thought them, we show the resolution in video format (along with a PDF file). The whole activity is performed in our complementary virtual course that uses Moodle platform (Atenea). We believe that the resolution in this format is well received by this generation of students who are immersed since childhood in new IT technologies. The use of this material can be understood in several ways, we have chosen the one in which the resolution is made in a LATEX format and the use of CAMTASIA allows animating the resolution by means of a voice-over. Surveys of students encourage us to continue this line of work and just as the comments of our colleagues.
