Science and Technology Teacher Training Project Based on Social Inclusion

Abstract

This paper reports an experience carried out in the Master Degree in Compulsory Secondary Teachers, Upper Secondary Education, Professional Training and Language Teaching, specialization in Technology, of two Spanish public universities. This experience promotes a higher education based on collaboration and social inclusion. Work teams from both universities developed technological projects that respond to needs of people with autism spectrum disorders, supervising those of their respective mirror teams, considered as sister, from the other university. In this way, we work on a large number of transversal competencies, which are crucial for university students and, especially, for these future teaching professionals.
