Abstract:

The “University tutorial function” is now being considered a very important tool to the education given at the University. The Tutorial Action Plan has carried out a project that will cover mainly the student's professional area in the degrees of Pharmacy, Nutrition and Food Science and Technology. However, the work plan should go beyond design and performance towards the real impact and efficacy in high student education. Thus, the evaluation is one of the key stept to keep and improve the quality. Thus, a continuous analytical and retrospective process will improve the action.

Objectives:
To assess the efficacy and viability of the Tutorial Action Plan.

Description of the Experience:
The experience already acquired (curso 2011/12) has allowed to the teachers involved in the TAP to detect successes, failures, strengths, weaknesses and the establishment of putative improvements. Mainly, the TAP should be evaluated to internal and external level. Both, students and professors who have participated directly are able to analyze the plan. Moreover, management organism belonging to the School of Pharmacy with experience in Docent Innovation will evaluate the project.

Main Results:
The internal evaluation by students has been measured and analyzed through validated surveys. The results obtained have been highly positive. The 88% of students give a positive evaluation to the PID activities development. The 94% of the students have given a global high mark (4/5) to the TAP and the 100% will recommend the participation to other students.

Conclusions:
Once TAP team has analyzed the survey results and the global performance, they have made an improvement purpose that has incorporate several modifications to the next application through the University Innovation Projects. New activities purposes will warrant a better achievement and outcomes.
