  A good teacher
• It is possible to train teachers but does
  not imply to produce good teachers
• It is required

  as for research activities
• - to be positive

  but have to be analyzed in context

  ? Learning Outcomes contribution

• training and experience ? Quality of HE
• Accreditation is a powerful tool How do

• CONCLUSIONS RECOMMENDATIONS (1)
• Industry has no time or budget to educate
  first employers
• What is important is ABILITY
• Internship at industry at each year
  mandatory
• Background has to continue compulsory
• Large investment in soft skills may limit
  progress in the future
• Students mimicking the professor ? Social
  training for professors
• Students have to self learn (teach learn to
  learn not teaching)
• Provide more contacts between students and
  industry
• Engage industry in curricula development ?
  disadvantage - short term view

11

• CONCLUSIONS RECOMMENDATIONS (2)
• Capacity of adapting ? soft skills included
  in the curricula
• Communication skills ? tuned to the audience
• Logical decision ? experience, the logic of
  nature -- teach in laboratories
• Work in Virtual Environments
• There is a need to identify the most
  important skills to develop at HE
• Communication with secondary education
• Massification of education ? difficult to
  produce a uniform product
