European Higher Education Area (EHEA) implies a new way of planning and organizing
the teaching-learning process. The active roles of students in their own learning process,
autonomous learning or collaborative work are some of the principles in the new
European education space. This scenario calls for a change in teaching methods. One
teaching method that promotes these principles is that of Project-Based Learning (PBL).
This method engages students in learning knowledge and skills through an extended
inquiry process structured around complex, authentic questions and carefully designed
products and tasks.
This paper aims to show the use of PBL as a tool for continuous improvement of the
teaching practice in the EHEA. Specifically, we present the results of an educational
improvement project carried out with undergraduate business students at a Spanish
public university (Universitat Jaume I). PBL has allowed us to promote their
entrepreneurship and ethics competences. The use of active methodologies based on
student learning therefore supports students in learning and practicing skills in problem
solving, communication, and self-management. [-]
