The International Tuning Academy has been established with the aim of
making the results of all Tuning and Tuning-related projects accessible
to the academic community and stipulating research on Tuning-related
topics. The present call is launched by the Deusto headquarters of the
Tuning Academy: Deusto International Tuning Academy (DITA).
The research projects we are looking for will focus on one of these topics:
1) analysing and evaluating the impact produced by the Tuning projects
at the level of particular higher education
programmes/institutions/countries/regions;
2) approaches to learning, teaching and assessment of generic
competences - concrete examples of what is done within higher education
degrees accompanied by enhancement proposals based on both theoretical
and empirical data;
3) staff development initiatives that facilitate implementation of
competence-based approach - critical evaluation of their effectiveness
and how well they meet the needs;
4) curriculum reform and incorporation of Tuning approach in
institutional and national policies.
If you believe that your research project is closely related to the
TUNING lines but is not included in any of the four broad research
topics indicated above, you may still apply and your application will be
considered. However, research projects within the three research topics
will be prioritized.
