Abstract

This paper presents a proposal for the implementation of several active teaching-learning methods in the classrooms of two postgraduate programs at the University of A Coruña, by members of the teaching innovation group in English and Irish studies. This group has worked and continues to work with various student-centred methodologies in the teaching practice, in which students are also active agents of their learning process. Teachers, thus, acquire a new role as guides and facilitators of teaching experiences. We will foster the use of strategies of cooperative learning and flipped classroom, so that students can assimilate and become familiar with these two methodologies. Therefore, we will describe the tasks carried out in the subject of Teaching-Learning Methodology of the foreign language in the Master's Degree in Secondary Education. Besides, we will show a project designed for the subject Models of literary and cultural interpretation of the interuniversity Master's degree in Advanced English Studies. In this case, techniques related to personal learning environments (PLE) will be used by the students for the selection, organization and creation of digital contents included in the aforementioned subject. As a conclusion, we will point out the benefits obtained in this experience as the basis for our commitment to employing active methodologies with postgraduate students. Our content is to maintain and deepen the implementation of these methodologies in the coming years.
