La difícil coordinación en la enseñanza de la Sociología

In the different degrees in Sociology taught at the Spanish university, lecturer coordination is far from common. Despite the fact that students are supposed to master a series of competences throughout their studies, the way in which this development takes place is rarely disclosed. Once inside the classroom, each lecturer enjoys extensive autonomy to determine the way in which he or she teaches, the university students assessment method and, sometimes, even the curricular content. All of this can lead to a quiet huge arbitrariness, which can be especially serious in the case of Final Degree Projects. In this text, the need arises for university teachers to return, with the corresponding observations and assessments, all written material —be it in the form of an exam or coursework— delivered to them by the students.
