Pedagogia+
Programme aims to enhance the quality of teaching by promoting a culture of pedagogical innovation, grounded in opportunities for the development of advanced teaching competencies, classroom observation, personalised feedback, and the sharing of best practices. This approach contributes to attracting and retaining both students and faculty in an increasingly differentiated, multidisciplinary, diverse, and inclusive educational environment.
Through the combined efforts of the Academic Development Unit and the Pedagogical Council, Pedagogia+ is structured around three main areas: 1) training, 2) the sharing of teaching practices among faculty, and 3) personalised support based on classroom observation, feedback, and coaching. This initiative is grounded in the principles of constructive alignment (Biggs & Tang, 2011) and Bloom’s taxonomy (Bloom, 1956), conceptualised across five key dimensions of academic development: Relationships, Assessment, Pedagogy, Innovation, and Digitalisation.
If you are a faculty member, you will find on this page a range of information, services, resources, events, and training opportunities from Técnico and other organisations to support the pedagogical dimension of your academic career.
