Abstract(s)
Active teaching-learning methodologies are a reality at the School of Education
and Social Sciences of the Polytechnic of Leiria (Portugal), namely through the
articulation with institutions of the community. The qualitative research presented
in this article intends to analyse the perception of the students who are attending
the Higher Professional Technical Course in Sociocultural and Sports Intervention,
specifically concerning the importance of these methodologies in a project
carried out with the District Hospital of Leiria. During the development of this
partnership, 42 students were challenged to collaborate throughout the training
process and, at the end, they were asked to write a report, which was considered
the data collection instrument. These individual reports include descriptions,
analyses and reflections that were processed through content analysis, using
categories, and adopting an exploratory approach. The results showed that the
students considered that this methodology of teaching-learning allows them to
acquire know-what, know-why and know-how competencies. Moreover, they
admit that the articulation with external institutions contributes to a better
acquisition and mobilisation of practical knowledge that they will be able to apply
to different situations, spaces and times in their future professional lives.
