527296-LLP-1-2012-1-UK-ERASMUS-ECUE Green Technology European Virtual Gateway Product23 OP 6.5 TEACHING TUNING WORKSHOP Introduction Education inspires progress in society, but at the same time it must respond, with foresight, to society, preparing adequate strategies for future programmes of studies. A teaching tuning experience involves several activities related to the exposition of the teaching activity to the interested. In the framework of VITEG Project, teaching Tuning experience consist on the creation of courses related to the postgraduate education, in order to prove that the course is attractive to attendees. In these courses, students are surveyed about the quality of the webpage, the quality of the taught subject, the visibility of the Virtual Learning Platform. Besides, as in any course, students had to pass an exam and received their marks. The main topics of the course developed in the frame of VITEG Project were related to Green Technology. In general terms, the main phases of a Teaching Tuning Experience are the consultation with 'actors' or 'stakeholders', the definition of academic and professional profiles and the translation of these into desired learning outcomes. Tuning identified indicative generic competences or transferable skills and described the then commonly used subject-specific competences in terms of knowledge, skills and understanding for nine subject areas. Another phase of 527296-LLP-1-2012-1-UK-ERASMUS-ECUE Green Technology European Virtual Gateway tuning is related to how to implement competences, defined on the bases of identified requirements of society and foreseen social developments besides scientific developments in the subject area concerned, in terms of approaches to teaching, learning, and assessment. The Pilot Experience Report aims to present the pilot activities from UPM and BUCKS which were developed during the 30 months of the project. The teaching tuning experiences developed during VITEG Project showed that an indicative sample of employers, graduates and academic staff were in broad agreement about the modules developed. The comparison of approaches to learning, teaching and assessment from the viewpoint of subject areas on a European wide scale is a new step forward in making higher education transparent. Under VITEG Project three pilot experiences have been developed, with a range of people covering a diverse range of students, ranging from students who are currently completing their college career to graduates who are enrolled in higher education. The first experience was developed with the students of the Master on Waste Management (UPM). The second experience was developed with the students from Computing of BUCKS. And the last experience consisted of an international summer course on Environmental Impacts on the island of El Hierro for attendees of all kinds. 527296-LLP-1-2012-1-UK-ERASMUS-ECUE Green Technology European Virtual Gateway FIRST PILOT EXPERIENCE: WASTE MANAGEMENT MASTER CLASS DATE May 30, 2014 NAME ETSI MONTES, UPM, MADRID, SPAIN DISCUSSED PROJECT (ACRONYMS) PARTICIPANTES Green Technology Virtual European Gateway VITEG • MARÍA PAZ ARRAIZA • MARTÍN GIMÉNEZ • BELÉN VÁZQUEZ DE QUEVEDO ETSI MONTES, UPM, MADRID, SPAIN LOCATION SUMMARY The students of the Master on Waste Management attended to a theoretical class about waste management, in the frame of VITEG Project.

SUMMARY El Hierro is the most westerly and the smallest island of the archipelago. The island has the UNESCO Biosphere Reserve designation and is home to natural swimming pools and crystal clear waters, ideal for swimming and scuba diving, as well as huge areas of protected woodland in the inland area. All those reasons made el Hierro an ideal place to make relaxing holidays in direct contact with nature. The summer course will be held in El Hierro, Canary Islands, Spain, during the last days of July (from July 28-30, 2014). RECLAND and VITEG 2014 is an international forum for the presentation of technological advances and research results in the fields of Climate Change and Green Technology.
