- The value of participation in the learning process
Under the pretext of encouraging student participation, the AQU Catalunya Student Committee has just been set up. And I’m proud about it, yet I’m puzzled. In fact, I feel obliged to say pretext because I increasingly question whether there is really any student participation. In this regard, the psychologist Ariadna Salva Aige is carrying out a commendable project, within the framework of the Ramon Llull University’s Students Council, to determine the causes why students don’t get involved in representational bodies. Her initial question of whether students appreciate the value of participation in their learning process should be the point where we begin.
