Discover with TECH how to bring Problem Based Learning to your Mathematics lessons and apply it successfully at different educational levels” 

The new educational systems seek innovation in learning processes, moving away from the master class to bet on the active participation of students, encouraging discovery, research or problem solving. And it is in this last method where positive results have been achieved in the field of Mathematics.  

Problem-Based Learning leads the students to get involved in the search for a solution to a situation posed by the teacher in the classroom and that may be familiar to them because it happens in a real and close context. Bringing this methodology successfully to the classroom is the main objective of this Postgraduate certificate created by TECH for teaching professionals who wish to improve their didactics.  

An advanced program consisting of a syllabus developed by an excellent team of professionals with a teaching vocation and experts in teaching methodologies. In this way, graduates will have access to content that will allow them to learn about the characteristics, pros and cons of PBL, as well as how to apply it in their lessons.  

They will also have access to attractive multimedia content, with specialized readings and practical examples that they will be able to transfer directly to their daily work in the classroom. You will also have access to this material at any time of the day, from an electronic device with an Internet connection.  

An unique opportunity to progress in the world of teaching through an advanced university program that is flexible and compatible with the most demanding responsibilities. With no classroom attendance or classes with fixed schedules, students have the freedom to self-manage their study time and combine it with their work and personal activities. 

Enhance your teaching work by applying the most innovative methodology and improve the concept that your students have about Mathematics”
