• Resumen

  • The quality of university education has always been a major concern for all participants involved in the teaching-learning process. The ability to objectively analyze the quality of a subject and to diagnose the aspects that have to be improved has become a necessity, and even more, with the arrival of the European Higher Education Area. The subjects that have always been taught in classroom have suffered a substantial transformation, as current methodologies include online support. Besides, there is a major change in the teaching-learning concept, focusing the main role in the student. This entire situation requires new quality models.
