ResumenLa acción tutorial constituye uno de los pilares de la docencia universitaria. La tutoría ha supuesto un importante acercamiento a las necesidades del estudiante y al seguimiento de su proceso de aprendizaje, que implican cambios en la metodología de la docencia. El seguimiento académico, la planificación de objetivos de aprendizaje y el apoyo en la adaptación del alumno al entorno académico, resultan requisitos indispensables en el nuevo modelo educativo. Este cambio de paradigma confiere al tutor un nuevo rol de asesor universitario en el desarrollo de competencias académicas, personales y profesionales, que favorecen la autonomía personal y la toma de decisiones. Para poder realizar esta función el profesor universitario necesita el adquirir y desarrollar unas nuevas competencias propias de la tutoría, como: Comunicación eficaz, Escucha activa, Manejo de conflictos, Planificación y Trabajo en equipo. Todas ellas planteadas desde el prisma de la acción tutorial, que podemos entenderlas desde una doble vertiente, por un lado las competencias que debe tener el profesor para desarrollar su función como tutor y por otro aquellas que el tutor deberá intentar desarrollar en sus pupilos.Los planes de acción tutorial están encontrandose con una serie de dificultades de puesta en marcha debido a la inercia con la que se mueve la universidad española; ello implica la necesidad de apoyarlo con la aportación de recursos, tanto institucionales como personales, así como con la organización de cursos de formación específicos que permitan desarrollar nuevas estategias y conocer herramientas para el trabajo de la tutoria desde las competencias.Palabras clave: Competencias, tutoria, coaching educativo, formación de profesorado universitario, comunicación eficaz, resolución de conflicto. AbstractTutorial action is one of the pillars of the University teaching. Tutorial has meant an important approach to the student needs and to the monitoring of their learning process, involving changes in the methods of teaching. The academic monitoring, the learning objectives planning and the support to the adaptation of the students to the academic environment are essential requirements in the new educational model.
The World Health Organization’s global action plan on workers’ health establishes that occupational health services should carry out lifestyle interventions within the workplace, to prevent the development of non-communicable diseases. The objective of the study was to compare adherence to a healthy lifestyle six months after completion of a multi-component intervention with remotely supervised physical activity during the COVID-19 pandemic versus a multi-component intervention with in-person supervised physical exercise before the COVID-19 pandemic in university employees with unhealthy habits and predisposed to change. A prospective cohort study following the “Strengthening the Reporting of Observational studies in Epidemiology” (STROBE) guidelines was conducted, with two arms. Each multi-component intervention lasted for 18 weeks, and consisted of education on healthy habits, Mediterranean Diet (MedDiet)-based workshops, and a physical exercise program. Twenty-one middle-aged sedentary university employees with poor adherence to the MedDiet completed the study. Six months after completion of the intervention, both groups increased physical activity levels, adherence to the MedDiet, eating habits, health-promoting lifestyle, health responsibility, and health-related quality of life. There were no differences between groups in any of the variables analyzed. Therefore, remotely supervised physical exercise could be adequate to achieve long-term adherence to a healthy lifestyle in the same way as conventional face-to-face intervention, at least in a population willing to change.
Healthy lifestyles should be encouraged in the workplace through the occupational health teams of the companies. The objective of the present study was to evaluate the adherence to a lifestyle intervention carried out in university employees during the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on health-related quality of life (HrQoL). A randomized controlled trial following the CONSORT guidelines was performed, consisting of three supervised interventions lasting for 18 weeks: an educational intervention on healthy habits, a nutritional intervention, and a telematic aerobic and strength exercise intervention. Lifestyle and HrQoL were analyzed six months post-intervention to assess adherence. Twenty-three middle-aged participants completed the study. The intervention group significantly improved their lifestyle according to the Health Promoting Lifestyle Profile II questionnaire, especially in the categories of Health Responsibility, Physical Activity, and Nutrition, with a large effect size. Sitting time was reduced by 2.5 h per day, with a moderate effect size. Regarding HrQoL, the intervention group showed a clinically significant improvement in the Physical Component Summary. Despite the lockdown and the mobility restrictions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, this intervention performed on university employees achieved adherence to a healthier lifestyle and improved their HrQoL, which is of great clinical relevance.
<p>La implantación de un plan de acción tutorial (PAT) de calidad, en el cual la formación integral del alumnado sea lo principal, es un tema de actualidad en el entorno universitario español. El presente trabajo persigue identificar las acciones contempladas en los PAT de diferentes universidades españolas, así como catalogar los diferentes tipos de actividades realizadas por los profesores-tutores en el contexto de la acción tutorial. Para ello se realizó un análisis cualitativo basado en paneles de expertos. Como resultado, se extrajeron tres vectores principales: Elementos habituales en un PAT universitario; Aspectos críticos desde los tutores y gestores de la acción tutorial; y Acciones en tutoría con sello de calidad. Del análisis realizado se concluyó que la acción tutorial de calidad es la base de la excelencia académica. Su consecución requiere clarificar y reconocer el papel del tutor, ajustar las proporciones de tutelados asignados de manera adecuada y potenciar el desarrollo de competencias transversales en el alumno. Para ello, se propone la coordinación transversal entre el profesorado, así como con servicios de orientación y apoyo; la formación y profesionalización de los tutores; y la aplicación de métodos de trabajo que permitan la adecuada orientación y seguimiento del alumnado.</p><p>---</p><p>The implementation of a quality Tutorial Action Plan (TAP), in which the integral formation of students is the main objective, is a topical issue in the Spanish university environment . This paper aims to identify the actions contemplated in the TAPs of different Spanish universities and catalog the different types of activities performed by the teachers-tutors in the context of tutorial action. To achieve this, the authors conducted a qualitative analysis based on expert panels. As a result, three main vectors were extracted: Standard elements in a college TAP, critical aspects from tutors and managers of tutorial actions, and tutorial actions with a seal of quality. From the analysis it was concluded that quality tutorial action is the basis for academic excellence. Its achievement requires to clarify and recognize the role of the tutor, adjust appropriately the ratio of students allocated per tutor, and promote the development of transversal skills in students. For this, the authors propose a cross-coordination among teachers, as well as counseling and support; tutor training and professionalism; and the application of working methods that allow proper guidance and monitoring of students.</p>
