The current crisis, unsustainable growth, financial scandals involves reflection on the role of universities in the professional training, particularly those who have to manage businesses. On this issue, there is a perception that the teaching of ethics and corporate social responsibility (CSR) is insufficient (Baetz and Sharp, 2004; Kashyap et al., 2006). In this regard, universities play a fundamental role due both to the impact of the incorporation of CSR into the design of their study and research programs, and its incorporation into universities' mission, vision, and corporate strategy (Muijen, 2004). Then, the present study focuses jon analyzing both the definition of educational objectives and skills development to be acquired by students as the level of inclusion of CSR offered by Spanish universities. In particular, the present paper focuses on analyzing reports verified by National Agency for Quality Assessment of degrees related to the organizational management area implemented in the 2010-2011 academic course, which degrees has been developed based on European Higher Education Area. Based on previous papers, the results of the present paper show that the Bologna process and the Higher Education reform in Spanish universities have promoted an increase of the presence of CSR in the business education.

Higher education is immersed in a deep reform for its adjustment to the European Higher Education Area (EHEA), where degrees and competences are validated for the whole European area. In this context, the teaching of taxation in the Degrees of Social and Law Science, as well as the rest of disciplines, goes through a period of reflection and it is starting up a series of experiences to increase the role played by the students in their learning process. In this paper we analyze the task carried out in the course Spanish Public Sector I, directed to last-year-of-a-course economics students. Most of them are digital natives and therefore the task is put into practice through the use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) in the Virtual Campus of the University of Oviedo. This experience will help us face this new period adapted to Bologna. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The implementation of the European Higher Education Area in Spain has involved a substantial change in the traditional practices of university education, introducing important modifications both in the teaching methodology and in the assessment criteria. This work presents the experience carried out by the Faculty of Economics and Business Administration of Albacete in the subject of Cost Accounting. The paper aims to determine whether the new methodologies used in recent years and the introduction of new criteria for assessment have had a positive impact on the improvement of the students' performance and motivation in the aforementioned subject, which is taught in the third year of the degree in Business and Management Administration (ADE). In order to achieve this, we compared the grades obtained by students during the academic years 2009/2010 and 2010/2011 (in which the ECTS methodology was applied) with those obtained in the two immediately preceding academic years: 2007/2008 and 2008/2009 (where the teaching methodology involved lectures and a final exam worth 100% of the final grade). The findings evince an overall increase in the rate of students who take the exam and participate in the process of continuous assessment as a result of the new teaching methodologies.

A survey procedure has been applied to a sample of teachers in the five university scientific areas. Aimed to establish teaching needs, data analysis of this research has poured a big amount of specific topics referring to six teaching blocks of competences: planning and developing teaching and conducting evaluation and tutoring, besides organizing teaching and lifelong learning. We have compared the result from the five scientific areas, and different teachers' categories. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper intends to identify the professional competencies that teachers working in the autonomous community of Madrid consider necessary in their educational practice. With this aim, a questionnaire was designed to analyze the importance of such competencies to teachers in the practice of their profession, the employment of these competencies, and training the teachers received in how to carry these competencies. Next, our compiled results are compared with those of other research in this field, and finally some proposals for initial training are put forward. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The adaptation to EHEA of the Spanish University involves a wide range of changes in the existing curricula of Documentation. The launch of the new title 'Bachelor in Information and Documentation' implies the implementation of a compulsory subject -the Grade Thesis-oriented to the realization of a research project at the end of the studies, with the objective of introducing the student in basic or applied research about any of the subjects studied along the grade. The object of this paper is to analyze the main themes of the projects developed in the LIS studies of the University of Murcia; and verify their degree of consistency with the subjects of the present curriculum and with the proposed compulsory subjects for the new title; checking whether if, at the end of their studies, the students channelled their activity within the main subjects of the curriculum or whether they directed their research into elective subjects and even into collateral subjects of their curricula. This review provides very valuable information with a view to this launching. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
