Pedagogical wind-vanes: a methodological proposal for undergraduate courses in ead modality in a communitarian institution

Abstract

The necessity to rethink the formation of professionals to work in contemporary society has challenged the formative courses in curricular and methodological terms. This paper has the objective of presenting and discussing a methodological proposal of a confessional and communitarian University for
Undergraduate Courses, in distance learning (DE) modality. This is a qualitative exploratory and documentary study. The proposal is based on the principles of dialogic relationship, curricular flexibility, theory-practice relationship and technology applied to education, based on teaching, research and extension activities. In this process, the proposal denominated Pedagogical Wind is articulated in nuclei, thematic modules and learning units. The proposition of new modalities of teaching should seek pedagogical innovations in relation to the
current curricular paradigm of formation. To that, it is necessary the  commitment of the institutional management, investing on the valuation of change, in infrastructure and in the formation of teachers. It is
essential that professors take on the commitment with the new project and with the reorganization of learning times and spaces.
