Abstract:

This paper shows diverse didactic proposals that have been elaborated by professors of the University of Extremadura (UEx) and Secundary Schools of the region in the outline of the Project of Didactic Innovation UEX PICTURE FACTORY (UPF-EEES). This project is framed in the Convocation of Actions for the Improvement of the Educational Quality, Modality "Incentives to the Excellency and Educational Innovation". The general objective has been to include in our teaching elements of the culture of the entertainment, as humour or music, designing materials and activities for this. We consider that these didactic proposals will redound positively in the process of students’ teaching-learning and they allow to capture in a more effective way their attention, to increase their motivation level and, finally, to contribute to participate actively, as the Higher Education Area (HEA) recommends. The impressions on these didactic proposals have received an excellent evaluation not only of professors but also of the students.
