Abstract
Higher education in Latin America is going through on-going times of change. Such changes seek to enhance the individual’s capacity to learn, and this is why education needs to be comprehensive while having an impact on pedagogic models. This paper attempts to conceptually analyze one of the main dimensions of comprehensive education, based on the experience in the Social Communication program offered by the School of Communication and Audiovisual Arts at Universidad Autónoma de Bucaramanga.
