At the end of the UC students should be able to:
1) recognize and use different types of methodological strategies, mastering its theoretical, methodological and technical requirements, inorder to make adequate choices in digital transition;
2) identify central problems in research design, from problem definition to conceptualization, operationalization, observation and proposal writing;

The project work is carried out from an action-research perspective, which is why it is based on the logic of interaction with the activities of diagnosis and characterization of contexts and design/development of an application project that will result from those observed in the field.
